This week, all of our daily tips will be about fantastic books written to help owners of fearful dogs better understand and help their dog to overcome his fears. Nicole Wilde’s seminal book is what I call “the bible of fearful dog books.” At 432 pages, it’s a long read, but it goes into more depth on specific treatment plans, types of fears, and holistic and conventional health aids for fearful dogs than any book on the market. A must-read for professionals who work with fearful dogs and pet owners of fearful dogs!

Hi Casey, Thanks for putting information out on fearful dogs. Nicole’s book is amazing and I use it all the time for my client’s dogs — love that she has protocols that can be adapted. Also love her new book on Separation Anxiety.
hopefully this will help me with my American Staffyx Bullarab found in the pound and ready for certain death. his name is Mitch and he is afraid of EVERYTHING. It seems he has been miss treated by a man, is there anything else that may help me more with this sad BIG boy …?
We just love him but im not sure he knows how to love us back

Casey, what’s the title of the book?
The title of the book would be useful.
I think it’s this–is this right? Help for Your Fearful Dog: A Step-by-Step Guide to Helping Your Dog Conquer His Fears
Casey, what is the title of the book?
I just found it on amazon. It is called “Help for Your Fearful Dog.”
If she is going to recommend a book, she should print the title.
