Welcome to Dogue Shop Publishing!
Dogue Shop Publishing is the creative and educational imprint of the Dogue Shop, a Montreal-based institution founded in 1999 by behaviour specialist and author Gaby Dufresne-Cyr. What began as a dog training and behaviour consulting service has grown into a centre for applied science, education, and storytelling—bridging the worlds of human and animal behaviour through literature.
With a foundation in science-based learning theories, social cognitive training, and human-animal interaction, Dogue Shop Publishing offers a unique catalogue that explores the intersections between psychology, animal behaviour, education, and narrative. The imprint focuses on making complex topics accessible to both professionals and the general public through engaging and thought-provoking formats.
Dogue Shop Publishing—Where Science Meets the Soul.
Published Titles Include:
Beyond the Lure Series: How to Train Dogs, a practical booklet series that teaches dog owners and trainers how to implement social cognitive learning theory. or what I refer to as Social Cognitive Animal Training (SCAT), without relying on lures (food bribes) or aversive methods. The growing collection of titles includes Touch, Come, Down, Sit, and Mine, each providing step-by-step protocols grounded in science and empathy.
Animal-Assisted Therapy: Superstars Change Teen Lives: Explore the transformative power of animal-assisted therapy in the lives of at-risk teenagers. The story unfolds in a unique setting where dogs, wolves, rats, and horses become compassionate companions in the journey toward healing and self-discovery.
Dog in the Mirror is God: A Scientifically Spiritual Approach to Treating Human and Animal Behaviour Problems: From science to spirituality, the book discusses quantum physics, psychological projection, mirroring, and behaviour modification protocols as an overall approach to change human and dog behaviour.
Dogue Shop Publishing is committed to educating through storytelling, whether in the form of instructional manuals or personal narratives. The imprint is especially focused on themes of resilience, connection, and the shared experience between species, offering readers an opportunity to grow alongside the characters—be they canine or human.
What’s Next
Expanding beyond its current catalogue, Dogue Shop Publishing is excited to announce the upcoming launch of a Historical Fiction collection. These new titles will weave together deep historical research, lived experience, and psychological insight to bring lesser-known voices and moments from the past into the present. Just like the imprint's animal training materials, these works aim to educate, inspire, and stir meaningful reflection—this time through the lens of history.
An Endless Journey Through Time: A reflective and philosophical exploration of life, love, death, and existence series—drawing from Gaby’s personal experiences and professional insights into the emotional and psychological landscapes of human behaviour.
Whether you're a dog lover, a science enthusiast, or a history buff, Dogue Shop Publishing invites you to explore the world through its pages—with empathy, curiosity, and an open heart.
