davanti al gruppo


Explanation:
Mi viene in mente il famoso libro "The dog wisperer" scritto da Cesar Millan, dove consiglia le persone che hanno cani in casa di imparare a essere "pack leaders".."how to lead the pack"..""and always to be ahead of the pack". If you let them lead you thay will be "il padrone" e non tu.
Non ho mai letto "the complete running collection" ma secondo me la traduzione e la stessa.
Successo!
