Many dogs suffer from such psychological problems as phobias, hyperactivity, separation anxiety and depression. This book recounts the stories of seven dogs, whose behaviour had become so erratic that their owners were on the verge of getting rid of them.

The chapters are presented in the form of accessible stories interspersed with sidebars containing relatively more technical information.Claude B???ata is a behaviourist veterinarian and a member of the European College of Behaviourist Veterinarians.
