I found it a great tool for Bat-dog and her people issues. I adapted my way of dealing with her to account for her breed personality. It has helped simplify things. It also explains her magnificent nose that can smell out chocolate for miles (if chocolate ever becomes illegal, she'd be the most successful drug sniffer dog in history).
It also explains why, even though Moose-dog is a shepherd, he does not have that one person dedication. I always say it's his Canadian side, he just doesn't know how not to be nice (he's part Newfie).
