From the back cover:

“Pat has done it again with this incredible journey into structure and the pertinence to action. This is a must read for anyone who owns and works with dogs – the dog’s structure has to be considered when examining the job of the dog. Pat outlines structure clearly and precisely as it pertains to the action of the dog. Dogs will be forever grateful.” – Dr. Debbie Gross Saunders, Certified Canine Rehabilitation Practitioner, author, lecturer, and teacher

“Agility handlers put a lot of time and effort into searching for the ‘perfect’ dog for the next agility prospect.  But no dog is perfect; like people, all dogs have structural imperfections. As their caretakers, it’s incumbent upon us to develop the knowledge to identify our dog’s imperfections and evaluate them in relation to what we are asking the dog to do in our sport…Until now, there hasn’t been a reference on structure specifically aimed at owners of dogs chosen for an active lifestyle. Structure in Action fills this hole. It looks at dogs from head to toe in a practical and understandable manner. for what our dogs give us every day, we owe it to them to read this book.” – Monica Percival, Editor, Clean Run magazine, 4-time National Agility Champion
