The honest math

Nobody adds up what guessing about your dog costs. So here is a year of it, priced the way it really happens.

The guessing way

  • An urgent vet visit for a change that had been showing for a week or two$250 to $1,500, depending on the tests
  • Calming sprays, wraps and chews, bought one after another$20 to $60 each
  • Toys and puzzle feeders that end up in the basket$10 to $30 each
  • A chewed door frame, couch cushion or set of blinds after a scared day alone$50 to $500 to put right
  • Evenings of free videos that say different thingsfree, and hours of your time
A typical yeara few hundred dollars and up, and more worry than you needed

Ray's way

  • Knowing your dog's normal, written on one pagefree
  • A regular vet visit while a change is still newabout $60 to $100 for the exam
  • One toy picked for how your dog really playsabout $10 to $20
  • A calm leaving routine and a plan for loud nightsfree
  • Knowing what each signal most likely meansthis book
The same yearfar less, and a dog you understand

Your numbers will differ. Vet prices change a lot from town to town, and every dog is different. But one visit caught early, or one gadget you didn't buy, can pay for the book.

Ray Colby

Lifelong dog owner · Michigan

I've had dogs my whole life. Sadie met the school bus when I was a boy. Maggie, a beagle mix with a nose that ran her life, was with me for fifteen years. Now it's Tucker, an 80-pound shelter mix who follows me to the bathroom and leans on my legs until I sit down. I live in Michigan with my wife Beth, and I've worked at the same lumberyard for 26 years.

When Tucker first came home, he hid behind our couch for weeks, and I didn't understand one thing he was telling me. So I started reading, and I never stopped. I'm not a vet or a trainer, and I won't pretend to be. I'm a guy who reads a lot and watches his dog. This book is the part of that reading that changed how I see Tucker, checked against the published work of people who study dogs, and it tells you plainly when a question belongs with your vet.

Questions, answered honestly

Is this a printed book you mail me?
No, and I want you to know that before you spend a dime. It is a PDF: a file you open on your phone, your tablet or your computer the moment you pay. Nothing comes in the mail. The type is set big on purpose. You can print any page you like at home, and the pages at the back are made to be printed and kept on the fridge.
I'm not much of a reader. Is this too hard for me?
It is written for somebody at the kitchen table with the dog on the rug. Short chapters, plain words, and the answer comes first in every one. You don't have to read it front to back. Look up the thing your dog did today and read that chapter.
I've had dogs all my life, and every dog is different. Will this fit mine?
You know your dog better than I do, and the book says so. I've had dogs all my life too, and I still took Tucker's yawns at the vet's office for tiredness. You may find a few like that too. Where size, age, breed or a rough start in life change the answer, the book tells you, and it covers small dogs, big dogs, rescues and old dogs.
Are you a vet? Is this vet advice?
No, and it isn't. I'm not a vet, a vet tech or a dog trainer. I'm a lifelong dog owner who has read everything I can find on how dogs think, and this book is what I learned from that reading and from my own dogs. It helps you notice and understand. It can't examine your dog. So every time a change could be about health or pain, the book says so plainly and tells you to talk to your vet.
I'm not good with computers.
You don't need to be. You press one button and the book opens the way a photo opens, with no account to make and no password. If it doesn't open, write to me here and I will walk you through it myself, or give your money back.
Is this a subscription? Will you charge my card again?
No. One payment, one time. No membership, no monthly anything, no free trial that turns into a bill. I couldn't charge you again if I wanted to.
What if I lose the file?
Your link lives in your email, so that is the thing to keep. If you lose it, go to the download page and put in the email you bought with, and it comes right back to you.
What if it's not for me?
Write to me within seven days and I'll give your money back, and you keep the book. I would rather that than have you feel taken.
