Product Description

Product Description

"Ivan′s training comes from the heart, for the dog. He has certainly enhanced my view of training and has taught me many valuable, yet simple techniques to achieve the most from my dogs and myself." ––Mary A. Allen, World Championship Competitor, USA Apprentice Judge, USA New England Regional Director

"Ivan Balabanov is among the few top trainers in the country who truly understands dog behavior and drives. He is highly respected by the best Schutzhund competitors, trainers and coaches in the country." ––Glenn Stephenson, United Schutzhund Clubs of America Judge, International competitor

Training methods for the top competitor. Advanced Schutzhund takes a problem–solving approach to Level III work that will help competitors bring their dogs to the highest level. Tracking, obedience and protection are dealt with individually, analyzing specific problems that crop up in each skill and offering step–by–step solutions. The approach uses operant conditioning techniques that steer clear of compulsion methods and build a dog′s confidence, courage and problem–solving ability. You′ll also find tips on how to compete at the National and World levels, including traveling with your dog.
A Howell Dog Book of Distinction

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book but not for Novice, 29 Dec 2007
By K. Foukis (Greece) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
In my opinion his method is maybe the best bringing consistent results. After all he is the 2007 World Champion, which in a way proves his method is really working. The only thing one should be aware about this book is that it requires a good basic knowledge about Schutzhund training since many things and steps are considered already known in the book. It is worth the money for those into Schutzhund sport.
