A dog-training guide that stresses effective communication and encourages dog owners to respond to their pet with canine manners offers tips on housebreaking, breeds, and more.

Reviews

Trainer, radio host, and author Ross based his teaching methods on the theory that dogs learn through behavior. If it is agreeable to them as they are doing it, they will repeat it; if it is disagreeable, they will avoid it. In easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions Ross and coauthor McKinney show owners how to apply this theory when training. They also discuss canine breed characteristics, capabilities, and limitations. Dog Talk is for all dog owners who want happy, obedient, well-mannered pets without attending training classes or without the perfection required for show competition. Recommended for most libraries.
