Jean Donaldson offers an exciting new perspective on the age-old relationship between mankind and dogs. Her work with her own dogs and those of her clients, combined with her research and her study with other canine behaviourists has led her to the realisation that, in all likelihood, dogs learn exclusively through operant and classical conditioning.

Donaldson demonstrates that the all-too-common misconceptions about dogs and dog behaviour are not limited to exaggerations concerning canine intelligence. Many people feel a deep disappointment when they discover the need for heavy artillery i.e. food and other primary reinforcements to train their dog. Donaldson counters this with her eloquent conviction that it is time for us to rid ourselves of the belief that dogs are capable of experiencing a desire to please. Generations of completely and utterly normal dogs have been branded as canine misfits simply because they require actual motivation.

AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOUR IN DOMESTIC DOGS is a vital issue that has long needed to be brought into the open. Donaldson’s work with the rehabilitation of aggressive domestic dogs has brought her to the understanding that are not two kinds of dog: nice dogs who would never bite and vicious dogs who do. Instead, she contends that biting is natural, normal dog behaviour

Aggressive behaviour within a community of dogs does not fracture relationships; its all taken very much in stride, much as we humans accept the occasional exchange of heated words. Problems arise when dog rules and standard rules conflict within human values. The upshot is that biting dogs, instead of being rehabilitated to fit into human culture, are summarily put to death. That is quite a culture clash.
