<p>In this book, Turid identifies what she calls calming signals: "signals used by dogs to prevent things from happening, from avoiding threats from people and dogs to calming down nervousness and fear."  Turid goes on to explain how dogs use calming signals, and how we, as dog owners, can use them as well with our own dogs.</p>

Winner of the 2000 Maxwell Award for Best Short Book. Presented by The Dog Writer's Association of America. Life in the Canine Lane is useful to dog owners as a quick peek at what life with a dog is really about.  Stephanie Huber, through stories of her own dogs and others that she's known, touches on behavior and training from the dog's point of view.  She encourages owners to spend more time with their pets by explaining and encouraging them to play "The Doggie Lottery" game.  Easily read, Life in the Canine Lane is appropriate for the younger members of the family also.  While Stephanie outlines some basic, non-coercive training techniques, the book's strongest suit is in making the reader more aware and more dog wise.
