    The concept of canine consent is far more than simply a buzzword in modern dog training practices. In its current form, consent is a distinctly human concept, designed by humans and for humans. Looking beyond species boundaries can help us not only consider concepts of canine consent and autonomy, but it can also help us to apply these concepts in our everyday interactions with dogs, which is fundamental for any professional working with dogs as well as for everyday dog caregivers. This canine-indexed definition of consent includes a model of five major categories: Touch/interaction-based consent, cooperative care using learned consent behaviors, activity consent, consent-based learning, and substitutive consent. These categories involve a two-way communication system, integration of salient choices, teaching consent behaviors and incorporating existing training protocols that adhere to the Humane Hierarchy of best practices, and an evaluation of dependent decision-making in extenuating circumstances. This book aims to merge the existing literature and new understandings about canine consent to paint a complete picture. It will challenge the current expectations of dogs and dog behavior in our society with an intention of considering their perspectives, experiences, and emotional needs.

    The world is not as we think it is. We are taught standard accepted beliefs from birth and many of them are not correct or a misunderstanding of the truth. 
Who am I to say so? At this writing I’m nearly seventy years old and I’ve spent my life observing reality as an engineer and explorer of the unknown. 
I’ve had many weird and paranormal experiences and done lots of research. Many patterns have made themselves known to me and this is why I make these types of statements. 
This book is an effort to shed light on these misunderstandings and change your perception of the world we live in. 
Much of what I will relate is based on my subjective experiences and research many would say does not conform to the accepted scientific method yet you will see that my observations make a lot of common sense. 
Some of these concepts have been around for thousands of years but are not commonly accepted today. My effort is to show you why these ideas are likely true and how these concepts also are built on to provide new understandings. 
At the end of each chapter logic is provided on how general belief in these new ideas will change humanity. 
My hope is that by the end of this book you the reader will open your mind more about many things which are strange but possibly true.
