Product Description
Synopsis
Training dogs has traditionally been done by using negative reinforcement and brute force (take the choke collar as an example). But the tide is turning, and Terry Ryan, well-known dog trainer, is at the forefront of a revolution. Outwitting Dogs draws on her twenty five years of hands-on experience helping people understand and train dogs, and solve dog behaviour problems using kinder, gentler methods. Outwitting Dogs uses more brain than brawn to motivate dog behaviour with positive training techniques, and helps readers truly understand the minds of their canine friends (and even enemies). Chapters cover:. Outwitting puppies. Housebreaking. Curing the chronic chewer. How to cure the leash puller, the dog that jumps on people, the dog that hates to be left alone, the dog that won't come, the dog that barks too much, the biter, the aggressor. How to outwit the neighbour's dog. How to teach your dog tricks. How to outwit dog trainers. Even a chapter on outwitting dogs and kids at the same time, and much more. No sensible dog owner will want to be without a copy.

Format:Paperback
Terry Ryan has produced a book that warrants a much higher price tag. Expertly written. Informative, and rivetting. After reading this book there should be no way that your canine companion can outwit you. As the reviewer for dog-oscars.com I feel I am duty bound to inform my members of this value for money dog training guide. Positive actions produce positive results. A very clever dog training book.

Format:Paperback
Title is misleading, this is a standard dog training book and offers no real insights into how a dog thinks or how to outwit your pooch.
