"The imbalance between genetics and a modern environment creates friction and ripple effects for behavioral health."

-Kim Brophey, Meet Your Dog: The Game-Changing Guide to Understanding Your Dog's Behavior

"The entire point of ritualized communication, signalling, and threatening behavior in nature is to avoid actual conflicts and altercations. To assume that warnings are just an indication of intent to harm is backward."

-Kim Brophey, Meet Your Dog: The Game-Changing Guide to Understanding Your Dog's Behavior

"You can deliberately work with him, teaching him (learning) to handle potentially challenging circumstances at this opportune time in his life and development (self). The goal is to get one up on Mother Nature, not wait for instincts to kick in."

-Kim Brophey, Meet Your Dog: The Game-Changing Guide to Understanding Your Dog's Behavior

"This critical period gives us the largest window you will ever have in your dog's life to use learning to compete with the less flexible influences of genetics and the unpredictable and complex nature of the environment, An ounce of prevention, as they say, is worth a pound of cure."
