This user-friendly, engaging book describes a six-week program that gets dogs and their owners off on the right paw. It emphasizes positive, friendly training methods and includes clear descriptions of the basic exercises like sit, down, come, heel, stay and no jumping up. Each chapter takes readers through a week of exercises that progress toward attention and obedience in a variety of contexts. Also included are trouble-shooting tips for what to do when dogs haven't read the training books and don't respond as expected. This is a great resource that can make training fun for those at both ends of the leash, and ensure reliable responses while still being our dogs' best friends.
Family Friendly Dog Training is a valuable resource for everyone who teaches classes or anyone who wants a happy, better-behaved dog. We include it in our training classes, and it gets rave reviews from clients who appreciate that they can review new concepts and exercises at their leisure. We've kept the cost down so that it is affordable, either at retail or wholesale prices, and made it short enough to be reader-friendly, but thorough enough to be truly useful.
