Mungo’s Books for Dog People

 

 

Canada finally has a source where you can find books & DVD’s about positive training and animal behaviour, training tools and more – all in one place.  We also have books on horses, cats & birds...and Gift Certificates, too!

 

We ship across Canada!  Just e-mail or call us to place your order.  If you are unsure of what you need or can’t find what you’re looking for, just ask Leigh for help.

 

Mungo’s Books for Dog People is owned by Leigh Sutherland, a Certified Pet Dog Trainer, with over 11 years of experience in the book industry.  Leigh’s certification is through the Certification Council of Pet Dog Trainers( www.ccpdt.com ), an independent international certification council, requiring extensive knowledge of dog behaviour, the science of learning, dog training, and teaching people. 

 

Leigh is a professional member of both the Canadian Association of Professional Pet Dog Trainers (www.cappdt.ca ) and Association of Pet Dog Trainers (www.apdt.com ).

 

Leigh’s educational background is in Anthropology, including primate field studies, where she learned to study animal behaviour, a crucial skill in working with dogs...and people.

 

This background is put to work, finding the best resources for you to work and play with your dog.

 

And yes, there is a real Mungo J!  She is a brilliant eleven-year-old, orange and white Border Collie cross, who dragged Leigh into the dog training world many years ago.  “Mungo” is an old Scottish name, meaning “dear friend”.  She suits it perfectly!
