Detailed description
Learn how to train your dog simply, humanely and effectively! This book will help you teach your dog basic skills like coming when called, heeling and walking on a leash. Even more, it will help you accomplish these things with a minimum of frustration and worry and a maximum of love.

Author Liz Palika's training philosophy is based on the bond between owner and pet. She focuses both on making the relationship between you and your dog stronger through training, and making your training time more effective by starting out with a good relationship. Your positive approach is the key to your dog's successful training. Delightful drawings by award-winning artist Pam Posey-Tanzey remind us that, above all, working with your dog should be fun!
