Synopsis

Learn how to work with your dog in the Three Modes of Training in order to build a bridge between your practice sessions and the obedience ring. The process consists of the motivational WOW mode, the Confidence Building mode, and the Testing mode. Three distinct ways of practicing with your dog will lead you both to a better understanding of your training and of each other. By keeping in mind the simple formula: Dog Talent + Human Talent + Time Spent Practicing = Training Results, you can tailor your performance goals to perfectly fit your unique abilities and potential. Throughout the book the reader is encouraged to tap into the natural empathy that we all possess and see training sessions from the dog's perspective
