Fired Up, Frantic, and Freaked Out: Training Crazy Dogs from Over the Top to Under Control Description
"I’m loving it! Laura has managed not only to write a clear and incredibly important book, she’s really funny too! Her way of writing, the images in her language, and the diagrams make this book really stand out; there’s no way to misunderstand the concepts she’s presenting."
-- Emelie Johnson Vegh, co-author of Agility Right from the Start
Some dogs need a little help.
Some dogs are afraid, or excited, or reactive. Dogs that “don’t listen” and “go crazy” don’t live the lives we –- or they –- want.
Fired Up, Frantic, and Freaked Out can change that. Simple steps and an accessible, conversational tone from award-winning, internationally-known trainer Laura VanArendonk Baugh CPDT-KA KPACTP make calming the agitated dog not only possible, but pleasant.
Inside you’ll learn how to
- Achieve change in short, simple training sessions of a minute or less
- Maximize the effects of natural brain chemistry
- Know when to call in medical help
- “Clean up” unreliable behaviors in both overexcited sport dogs and pets at home
- Recognize how fear, aggression, and excitement are variants of the same root problem
The conversational tone is both informative and fun — very accessible, and it feels like the reader has a consulting trainer standing at her shoulder! Bring your dog from emotional to thoughtful, and enjoy a calmer, more enriched life with your best friend.

Whether you're a dog training geek or a frustrated pet owner, this book proves to be an excellent resource and extremely reader-friendly. I rank this book up with Behavior Adjustment Training (Grisha Stewart) and Control Unleashed (Leslie McDevitt) -- a must-read for anyone with a dog who "flips out like a ninja!". This is going high on my list of resources to recommend to clients as a step-by-step protocol to follow between visits.

I read a ton of dog books and train service and pet dogs myself. I can say without hesitation this book brings something exciting to those struggling with dogs who are "over the top" with their behavior. If you are frustrated by your dog's barking at the door, or reacting to other dogs or any number of other "over the top" behaviors you'll find a real jewel in this. And by the way Laura's writing style is just a joy to read..you will learn and have fun too...how good is that!
