Michele Caricato, Dog trainer. Author. Storyteller.

Decades spent working with dogs of different breeds taught me one thing: there is no such thing as “just a dog”. Every breed brings its own history, instincts and wonderfully peculiar way of looking at the world.

Here I turn that experience into books, stories and practical ideas — with enough humour to make understanding dogs feel less like studying a manual and more like exploring a new universe.

They might be a bit overwhelming with their energy, but once you learn to channel it, life becomes a rewarding adventure. This guide helps you understand and embrace your Labrador’s amazing qualities.

Shiba Inu

The Shiba Inu is an ancient Japanese dog breed known for its independence, intelligence, and stubbornness. This unique companion, respected for its loyalty, requires collaborative training approaches. While they may be reserved with strangers, proper socialization aids in navigating interactions. Their charming personality offers a rewarding relationship grounded in mutual respect.
