Okay, here I am! There are really no books available about training and educating CSW in English at the moment. However, there are books that can be quite useful in dealing with CSW (or basically any other dog). Most of the training and educating basically consists from following few basic rules. These are so called "rules of the pack" and most of the books that I will mention now, describes them in one or other way and helps to explain everything in a nice and sometimes even funny way.
So here are the No.1 books, that I find highly useful:
John Fisher - Why does my dog..?
John Fisher - Think dog!
Jan Fennel - The Dog Whisperer
Patricia McConnell - The Other End of the Leash
Also, very interesting are books by Roger Abrantes, Stanley Coren - these are about behaviour, dog language and dog inteligence.
Nice and helpfull books about educating and training dogs and puppies are from Gwen Bailey.
