The Balanced Dog: A Holistic, Evidence-Based Approach to Dog Behaviour and Training cuts through the noise of the dog training world's divisive debates to offer something rare: a genuinely dog-centred perspective.

Drawing on years of frontline experience in rescue work and behaviour consultation, Julia Langlands presents a comprehensive guide that treats dogs as complete beings, not training problems to be solved. From the gut-brain axis and hormonal influences to neurological development and the power of routine, this book explores the interconnected factors that shape canine behaviour. Readers will discover why a dog's diet might be fuelling aggression, how chronic stress rewires the brain, and why some dogs are labelled incorrectly. She explains how most dogs are actually crying out for balance.

Practical without being prescriptive, The Balanced Dog provides both dog owners and professionals with the knowledge to assess individual dogs holistically and create truly effective, ethical behaviour modification plans. This is the book for anyone who wants to understand dogs more deeply, and help them live happier, more balanced lives.
