Bad to the Bone: Analyzing and Assessing Dog Bites
with Cara Shannon , JD, CPDT-KA, CAP1
Understanding the potential damage a dog is likely to do
in future aggressive incidents is one of the most important
skills you can have when working with behavior prob-
lems.
Building on the work begun by Dr. Ian Dunbar in catego-
rizing dog bites through the use of a linear hierarchy and
consulting with a veterinary behaviorist, emergency room
veterinarian, emergency room physician, general practice
physician, and many experts in the field of canine behav-
ior, Cara Shannon
presents comprehensive bite hierarchies for analyzing
bites to humans and bites to other dogs. Cara then uses
photos and case studies to help consultants gain fluency
in applying the hierarchy to actual cases and bites.
$35.00
