Dear Dog Lover: Dogs aren’t equipped with built-in foolproof training manuals. In fact, it may be easier to wire your new stereo system than fine-tune your sometimes misbehaving dog. Fortunately, you are in luck. In Dog Fancy’s Guide to Training, you receive the unique opportunity to learn gentle, no-punish training methods from five of the world’s top dog trainers. We are proud to showcase the positive training methods of Debi Davis, Donna Duford, Susan Garrett, Terry Ryan, and Sue Sternberg. All of them prove day after day that you can teach dogs in fun, positive ways without the need for physical force. In these pages, you will read how even tiny dogs can make giant strides as service dogs. You will discover how to stop your dog from digging in your garden by practicing the art of compromise. You will learn why the circular wag is such a key sign to look for when adopting a shelter dog. You will recognize why puppy kindergarten classes are so crucial to the social development of your new tail-wagging pal. And, you will gain inside secrets into turning your jock dog into a ribbon-winning performance athlete. Face it, we love our dogs – even when they chew up our favorite pair of leather shoes or tip over the kitchen trash can. But proper doggie etiquette is within your reach. It starts with proper training. Read on and let our talented trainers guide you and your dog to a healthier and happier relationship.
