Allow yourself to see Biblical truth in this classic tale of what can happen when you yield to the Master.

Dog Lessons by Hersch Wilson Pdf

“The world is a very narrow bridge. Cross it with a dog.” “When in doubt, walk your dog” is the first of many valuable maxims in Dog Lessons, a heartfelt reflection on what dogs can teach us when we open ourselves to listen and learn. After sixty-plus years living and working with dogs, Hersch Wilson shares self-deprecating stories and lighthearted musings on a life filled with fur-covered furniture, unexplained messes, and destroyed property. The resulting compendium of dog wisdom — from universal values like loyalty and curiosity to practical lessons on napping, playing, and avoiding a serious fight — is not only poignant but eminently good advice.

Summary of Brandon McMillan's Lucky Dog Lessons by Everest Media, Pdf

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The breed aspect of your dog is extremely important. It determines his appearance, temperament, intelligence, energy level, and health. It’s the result of genetic manipulation by people who've manipulated the DNA of dogs to create a better dog. #2 The dog world is full of groups, each created for a specific task. For example, herding dogs were originally bred to control livestock, while hounds were bred to hunt. #3 The best time to consider how breed impacts a dog’s behavior is before bringing that dog home. Pet owners have to learn to live with DNA-driven problems or commit the time and energy it takes to teach a more acceptable behavior. #4 The world has changed a lot since the English bulldog was bred in the 1400s and 1600s. Today’s English bulldog is a great family pet, but they still have characteristics that hark back to the old days.

Training the Best Dog Ever by Larry Kay,Dawn Sylvia-Stasiewicz Pdf

Training the Best Dog Ever, originally published in hardcover as The Love That Dog Training Program, is a book based on love and kindness. It features a program of positive reinforcement and no-fail techniques that author Dawn Sylvia-Stasiewicz used to train the White House dog, Bo Obama, and each of Senator Ted Kennedy’s dogs, among countless others. Training the Best Dog Ever relies on trust and treats, not choke collars; on bonding, not leash-yanking or reprimanding. The five-week training program takes only 10 to 20 minutes of practice a day and works both for puppies and for adult dogs that need to be trained out of bad habits. Illustrated with step-by-step photographs, the book covers hand-feeding; crate and potty training; and basic cues—sit, stay, come here—as well as more complex goals, such as bite inhibition and water safety. It shows how to avoid or correct typical behavior problems, including jumping, barking, and leash-pulling. Plus: how to make your dog comfortable in the world—a dog that knows how to behave in a vet’s office, is at ease around strangers, and more. In other words, the best dog ever.
