A parent's response to The Dog Who Couldn't Be Petted: My husband just read a prepublication copy of The Dog Who Couldn't Be Petted to our 5 year old; it was the FIRST time she has sat all the way through a book of this length. When he finished, she said, 'Read it again!' She loves it. I asked her 'Is this the book you want?' and she yelled "YES!!!!" Then she had him read it again, this time to her dolls so they can learn too. When I tried to interrupt her, my daughter exclaimed, "No! My dolls are ready to learn some doggy stuff!" This book is so necessary. It is one of my favorite new kids' books."

Written with the layperson reader in mind, Such Small Hands explores how our current pet culture exists in a state of contradiction and dissonance, how this condition fuels an underlying feeling of despair across the culture, and what can be done to remedy the situation in order to achieve safety and well-being for animals and the humans who care for them. Seeking a cultural shift in the treatment of companion animals, Certified Canine Behavior Consultant & Certified Professional Dog Trainer Rain Jordan provides a brief history of aversives and a primer on the philosophy and practice of anti-aversives in animal training, handling, and care.
