The Way of The Pack has become a classic. Thank you Brenda for showing me a more kinder way with Livestock Guardian Dogs.
— Candy and Roy
This book is full of practical advice for learning about LGDs, and how to give them the opportunity to live to their fullest potential. The best part may be the great stories Brenda uses to illustrate how to put her advice into practice. Relying on years of living with these dogs, her knowledge and experience is deep and her love and admiration for the breeds is evident.

This is an excellent book. It is written in a short snappy way that reads like an instruction manual on the proper handling of livestock guardian dogs (LGDs). Brenda Negri explains the reasons for everything in an easy to understand way. She brings 40 years of experience with livestock, predators, and study of LGDs both here and abroad and shares it with the reader.

Written with heart, soul, and passion. This is a great book if you are looking at LGD's or already have them. Give it a try and you won't regret it!
— Nathan Negri
Brilliant talk, thanks a million Brenda.

I have read many of the articles she wrote in magazines. I was fortunate enough to belong to a forum that she posted on and her words of wisdom were treasured. To have her life's work in a book, is a book to read from cover to cover and read again and again. She teaches how toread a dog's body language and how to present yourself to the dog. She promotes a hands on approach to these dogs and being involved in their daily lives. This book is on my nightstand, I read it at night. I just completed it and will start over in order to absorb all I can. I heartily recommend this book to anyone with Livestock Guard Dogs.

It doesn't matter if your pack consists of 1 LGD or 10 this book is an invaluable resource. Bravo for dispelling the "Hands Off" myth that has been perpetuated in the USA since the 1970s. So glad to find an author of LGDs that 'gets it'. Get the book, you won't be disappointed at all!

This book is the kind of depth, thoughtfulness and brilliance that does not come along very often. Especially with LGD books, I have not seen anything like Negri’s book before. More LGD owners need to read this book and see what they can realize, too. I’ve bought three other copies for other friends, to help them.

You are a great women, I truly wish people would have to take a class by you. Thanks for your incredible works!!!
— John Petzold
I love this. I wish more ranchers in Eastern Oregon would practice non-lethal livestock protection.
— Deep Tracks
I bought one copy. It turned into many more. Fantastic, great, wonderful.

This book has taken a new breath, contemplated and yes – even a much safer way to use and own LGDs. That includes using and being “okay” with all the predators, and no, that does not mean shooting them all for kill-joy, either! Read this book, see how much there is to learn on LGDs, and it will show such a new, kinder way.
— John C. Ziller
Stunning, deeply thoughtful and brilliant; this book can’t be read enough.
— Kathy Kentucky
Her book grabbed me. The You Tubes she put out have become classic, even millions of hits. My LGDs became even better dogs after reading this book (and the films) and I wish more people would see what is capable for them, too. Hands up, first class, five stars.

This is not a book you can flip through, grab a couple key points then put on your bookshelf and forget. This is a book you keep next to your bed and read through over and over again. Whether you run livestock or have a livestock guardian dog as a family companion, this book has valuable information. In fact, if you plan to interact with dogs in any form, this book is a good read.

The owner may have an error or two in her book, however, many people also know of what happened to her after the book came out on Amazon (her health, hospital and illness.) Regardless, what she has done in more than six years on her book has been read over and over. To me, that makes more sense. The wonderful pages of photos, resources, films, book ideas and more, make this book beyond the average dog LGD book.
