Integrated Dog Training The Commonsense Visual Guide to Training Any Dog

Most dog-training manuals urge people to pick a side: Team Dominate or Team Treat. Michael Wombacher instead gives readers what they really need: a comprehensive, hands-on, visual how-to that works across the board. A veteran trainer, Wombacher knows all the competing theories but also knows that in reality, it is a range of methods that get dogs and their humans where they need to be. His "Integrated Dog Training" is a much-needed commonsense approach that avoids cookie-cutter dictates and recognizes the individuality of each training situation. While the approach heavily emphasizes positive reinforcement, it also leaves room for corrective tactics when necessary. Each page of this large-format paperback features photos illustrating an exercise, brief supporting text, and ways to approach various scenarios. Straightforward discussion of situation-specific equipment, treats, and commands are included, as are a variety of age- and environment-variable approaches. Easy-to-use, image-driven, and immediately applicable, this is a truly unique guide to getting people and dogs in sync and happy lifelong.
