No matter what breed or age your dog is, this book can help you train your furry friend. A must have for dog owners and professional trainers alike.

We recently adopted an adult dog who is incredibly timid. We know "normal" training with any negative re-enforcement would be a disaster for her. This book was fantastic. All the steps are positive and she has responded very well to it. I do think it takes a little longer to train with only positive re-enforcement, but the emotional benefits are fantastic. This book is not a substitute for taking your dog to a training class, but it is a fantastic resource to use at home. I particularly appreciated the sections on how dogs learn and interpret things. In particular, I found very valuable the advice that every moment you're with your dog is a training situation. If you are not actively training your dog, then your dog is actively training you. :)

I'm not a professional dog trainer, just the owner of a Golden Retriever pup that is finally learning how to behave. This book is full of practical ideas that answered many of my questions and presented all kinds of tips for getting through to my pet. It's amazing how a little training can make life less stressful.
Pat rocks! July 21, 2005

This is one of two books that I include with my dog training classes in Seattle. I like it because the chapters are in bite-size, informative, entertaining pieces. Pat Miller is one of the premier trainers in the country, and she's brought us a gem with this book!
