As a suggestion you can, these days, easily copy your cd's and dvd's so that you always retain the original.

As for books, magazines etc. They have not yet written a book that will help a dog with a problem as all dogs are so different, same with training books. Ask for help on this board.

I stopped reading dog/horse books and magazines a long time ago and I became a much better trainer/rider/ because I wasn't getting confused with all this mass of information. If you follow an answer from a book, it never tells you how to correct it quicky if it goes wrong so you can end up with several issues and in a worse state and again, all dogs are different there truly is no single book that answers your questions. The best advice I give is observe your dog, make notes and contact someone like me or any reputable behaviourist and believe me, sometimes all the initials after the names of these people are not worth anything. Word of mouth is better. The more work with dogs a trainer/behaviourist does the more they will know. I am not knocking the people that have worked hard to get all their initials, I have them, but I have never had to use them, luckily for me. Always meet the person you are going to work with and make sure you like them, the dog likes them and you can see a genuine love coming from that person. Anyone who is into gadgets forget. They are a last resort. On this issue alone I could write all the things I've been through and learned and wishing nobody any offence, I'll stop at this point !!

We send free books on veterinary care and other behavioural things out to our caretakers and use old fashioned treatments as well as cutting edge Homeopathy and anything else we need to.
