Whether you have a puppy or an adult dog, a home- or sleep- wrecker (or both), whether your dog has ingrained bad manners or simply hasnβt learned any good ones yetβKathy Santo shines a light into the dark bedlam of life with an unruly dog. The secret of her ebullient and innovative guide to training: dogs are individuals, and any dogβs nature depends far less on his breed or pedigree than most training methods suppose.
In easy steps, you can quickly determine your dogβs βpersonalityββthe interplay of prime motivations, energy level, work ethic, and emotional profileβto tailor a regimen optimally suited to his learning needs. Where βone-sizeβ programs typically founder in canine chaos and human frustration, the Santo method carries you past failure: even when your dog doesnβt respond, your understanding of him deepens and leads you to a better strategy. This unique interactive approachβbased on the authorβs twenty years of experienceβnot only speeds canine learning but also lifts training from a temporary chore to an increasingly relaxed way of life.
The result is a lifetime of improving obedienceβan ever more confident and happy dog, and an ever more gratifying relationship for you both.
