This book covers a lot of ground, with sections on training equipment, toys and chews for environmental enrichment and play, canine communication, how dogs learn, how to evaluate and assess a dog for training and behavior work and chase out the details of what owners might report and a few case studies.
What reviewers are saying...
"A good third of the book is an appendix giving step by step, detailed and clearly explained instructions for numerous exercises. Two of the self-control exercises that I use with clients almost daily are the Settle: Relaxed Down on Lead, and the "Find It Game". - Carolyn Clark, M. A.
Director of Centre for Applied Canine Behavior

| Solid Information in a Solid Format, October 31, 2008 |
| Reviewer: Dianne McCorry, CPDT |
| I love this book. It is a treasure of information for new and seasoned trainers alike and while written for dealing with difficult dogs, the information is useful for all dog training levels. It should be on the CPDT “must have” study list with its clear terminology and well-organized layout. Reference seekers will love that it even has an index that is lacking in so many books! Best of all, Dee Ganley brings the solid science of training into an easy-to-read, easy-to-understand format. This book covers it all from management to behavior modification with precise instructions and even diagrams, but never loses sight of the owner-dog relationship about which she says, “You will come away changed forever, for one soul cannot touch another without leaving its mark.” This book is a staple on my “go to” list. |

| Overflowing with Practical Training Tips, September 29, 2008 |
| Reviewer: Barbara Shumannfang, CPDT |
Changing People, Changing Dogs is like an encyclopedia of Dee Ganley’s dog training advice. It offers at least 50 training games to help solve doggie problems, guides you step-by-step through your progress, and teaches you how to troubleshoot as you go along in your training. Ganley uses her years of experience to emphasize important habits for any trainer to get into before, during, and after training. She is able to share the skills that separate excellent training from run-of-the-mill training because she has the uncommon ability to convey both the science behind learning as well as practical, hands-on dog training advice. Whether your challenge is changing problem behavior or adding to your own training toolbox, Ganley’s book is one you’ll return to again and again.
