Excerpt from THE OUTERMOST HOUSE
by Henry Benson
...and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization
surveys the creature through the glass of his
knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and
the whole image in distortion.
We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their
tragic fate of having taken form so far below
ourselves. And therein we err, and greatly err. For the
animal shall not be measured by man. In a world
older and more complete than ours they move
finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the
senses we have lost or never attained, living by
voices we shall never hear.
They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they
are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of
life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendour and
travail of the earth.

What to Expect During Training
My dogs are part of my family. I recognize that they feel
pain and have specific social, physical, and mental
needs in a canine (not human) context.
Dogs are social creatures, however most dogs are
placed in a human world on human terms.
We, therefore, are responsible for their canine health
and mental well-being.
In order to accomplish this, all prospective clients
should consider the following:
A. Your dog needs to live inside the home.
B. Learning takes time! You will need to practice the
new behaviors you are learning and teaching your dog.
Ask yourself, " How successful do I want us to be?"
PRACTICE = PROGRESS and CONSISTENCY IS THE
KEY!
C. Each member of the family needs to take part in the
training. We want our dog to recognize that humans
provide leadership and guidance. Therefore, all
members of the family (pack) need to contribute.
