Expanded Description:

Abandoning traditional training methods, which tend to use punishment and physical dominance, progressive dog-trainer Cristine Dahl incorporates studies of animal behavior and humane treatment into an approach called Learning Theory. Though Learning Theory is the top method suggested by the SPCA, a practical guide has not yet been published for dog-owners. Here it is -- penned by a recognized dog-training authority and filled with in-depth, step-by-step instructions, and organized by behavior problems.

Excellent resource for every dog owner!, January 22, 2009
Reviewer: Faith H
This book is a must have for every dog owner; those who are just starting out and for those who think they might know-it-all. Seriously, who doesn't want to own a well mannered dog: one that is a joy to take out in public and who has learned how to act politely when visitors drop by unannounced. I know I do!

Cristine Dahl has provided the dog loving community with a book that can teach even the most novice dog owner how to have a well trained dog, while also learning a little of the history behind it. She also guides the dog owner on how to deal with some of the more advanced problem behaviors. Dahl has a solid grounding in animal learning theory, therefore her methods are humane. She also speaks in a language that is both intelligent and easily understandable to the layperson, and her love for dogs is obvious.
