Movie Reviews of The Language of Dogs
Movie Review: one of a kind resource !
Summary: 5 Stars
If you're expecting a flashy heavily edited National Geographic/Dog Whisperer "Dogs at Play" product... move on... If, on the other hand, you'd like to sit in on a lecture by a presenter who has her stuff together... is capable of organizing it, presenting ideas - - and has even sorted through seeming hours worth of video assessments to demonstrate her points - - get this. I really mean it: Sarah Kalnaj has does her homework, and is an organized and personable down-to-earth lecturer. - - or to put it otherwise, if I was back in college, I wouldn't mind sitting in on one of her classes... this is a content packed well paced presentation.
As for the topics covered, Ms. Kalnajs breaks down basic dog body language and presents video footage demonstrating the behaviors along with lot's of advice on assessment and accompanying anecdotal information. (Her method of assessment involves 4 people... primary handler, secondary handler, trained videographer and note taker, incidentally - - this method obviously contributed a great deal in her ability to present the topic.)
I especially appreciate her use of many different breeds and situations... I also like her ability to "digress" in an appropriate yet focused manner... and ability to point out the obvious and less than obvious, though my life will never be the same now that words like "penis crowning" and "uro-genital check" have been entered into my vocabulary by an Ann Coulter look-a-like...
All in all, I can't think of any resource like this on the market... This and AM I SAFE definitely belong in any dog handler / enthusiasts library - - hope more will be coming.
