What if you could nurture your dog the way that developmental psychologists, trauma specialists, and other experts approach raising children?

In Tender Paws, award-winning journalist Wendy Lyons Sunshine shows dog lovers how to use best practices from child development, attachment theory, trauma research, parenting styles, and advanced learning theory to foster trust, resilience, and cooperation in their canine companions.

Reimagine Dog Training as Dog Parenting

Traditional dog training often relies on dominance, obedience, and control—but modern science tells us there's a better way. Tender Paws introduces the HEARTS framework, a holistic approach designed to help dogs thrive emotionally, behaviorally, and socially.

Healing—understand how physical issues, trauma, and stress affect dog behavior and how to support recovery
Enrichment—learn how to fulfill your dog's cognitive and sensory needs
Appropriate environment—create a home where your dog feels secure
Respectful relationships—build a trusting and cooperative connection
Teaching sensitively and positively—promote ideal learning with evidence-informed strategies
Support the individual—tailor care to your unique dog's temperament, history, and biology

Far from a standard dog training manual, Tender Paws shows how and why to apply parenting best practices to diverse scenarios, such as:

recognizing developmental trauma and unmet core needs, especially in rescue puppies and dogs
making decisions about appropriate equipment,
responding to difficult behavior,
understanding the parenting style from which we approach our dogs.

Full of heart-tugging, real-life stories, expert interviews, and practical tools, Tender Paws empowers you to understand your dog's behavior through a new lens—one rooted in science, empathy, and connection. Helpful visuals and diagrams make it easier to decode signs of stress and find effective ways to help dogs thrive emotionally, behaviorally, and socially.

What You'll Learn

Recommended by animal behavior expert Temple Grandin as well as certified dog trainers and dog lovers alike, Tender Paws is winner of a Maxwell Medallion from the Dog Writers Association of America and finalist in the IAN Book of the Year Awards.
