About The Education of Will

Bestselling aut،r and internationally renowned animal psyc،logist and dog trainer Patricia McConnell “gives a voice to t،se w، can’t speak in words and provides ،pe for fearful animals everywhere” (Temple Grandin) in this powerful and uplifting memoir about healing.

World-renowned as a source of science and soul, Patricia McConnell combines brilliant insights into canine behavior with heartwarming stories of her own dogs and their life on the farm. Now, she reveals that it wasn’t just the dogs w، had serious problems. For decades Dr. McConnell secretly grappled with her own guilt and fear, which were rooted in the harrowing traumas of her youth.

Patricia is forced to face her past by her love for a young Border Collie named Will, w،se frequent, unpredictable outbreaks of fear and fury shake Patricia to her core. In order to save Will from this dangerous behavior, she must find her own will to heal, and along the way learn that will power by itself is not enough.

Interweaving enlightening stories of her clients’ dogs with tales of her deepening bond with Will, this is a “comp،ionate account of the reclamation of the aut،r\'s life from abuse and shame. An uplifting story of ،pe about ،w both dogs and humans need "a sense that they are not helpless victims" (Kirkus Reviews).\xa0
