Training for Both Ends of the Leash by Kate Perry,Yvonne Conza Pdf

New edition updated for 2022! Develop the tools and understanding you need to be the best trainer for your new puppy or adult dog—it’s never too early or late to start! Professional dog trainer Kate Perry has seen it all: the secret pee-ers, the delivery-man harassers, the skittish wallflowers, the zippy puppy, the pulling sled dog, the barking door dashers, and the withdrawing senior. If any of these remind you of your dog-or you fear your pup is on their way to developing a behavioral challenge-let Kate help you create a balanced training program that will yield positive results for you and your pooch. Kate’s layered methodology includes an easy-to-take Canine Drive Survey, the same one she provides to her clients, enabling you to identify your dog’s particular set of drives, behavioral traits, and needs. Next, she develops a personalized training program for you and your pooch that blends together your lifestyle and household setup and your dog’s unique “canine-ality” to create an atmosphere of mutual trust, respect, and understanding. Kate’s goal is to turn you into the best trainer for your dog, using simple commands with step-by-step instructions that cover all the essential training categories: housetraining, socialization, leash walking, exercise, and dealing with anxiety. Each chapter contains personal stories and photos pulled from Kate’s client files including Professor Sophie, Kate’s well-trained pug, who also offers her own brand of authentic nose-nudging advice and tips and has helped teach over 2000 pups in the group classes. Whether you’re looking for advice for your current canine companion or welcoming a new puppy into your home, Training for Both Ends of the Leash will help you create a happy and healthy relationship that will last a lifetime.

The Other End of the Leash by Patricia McConnell, Ph.D. Pdf

Learn to communicate with your dog—using their language “Good reading for dog lovers and an immensely useful manual for dog owners.”—The Washington Post An Applied Animal Behaviorist and dog trainer with more than twenty years’ experience, Dr. Patricia McConnell reveals a revolutionary new perspective on our relationship with dogs—sharing insights on how “man’s best friend” might interpret our behavior, as well as essential advice on how to interact with our four-legged friends in ways that bring out the best in them. After all, humans and dogs are two entirely different species, each shaped by its individual evolutionary heritage. Quite simply, humans are primates and dogs are canids (as are wolves, coyotes, and foxes). Since we each speak a different native tongue, a lot gets lost in the translation. This marvelous guide demonstrates how even the slightest changes in our voices and in the ways we stand can help dogs understand what we want. Inside you will discover: • How you can get your dog to come when called by acting less like a primate and more like a dog • Why the advice to “get dominance” over your dog can cause problems • Why “rough and tumble primate play” can lead to trouble—and how to play with your dog in ways that are fun and keep him out of mischief • How dogs and humans share personality types—and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than “alpha wanna-bes!” Fascinating, insightful, and compelling, The Other End of the Leash is a book that strives to help you connect with your dog in a completely new way—so as to enrich that most rewarding of relationships.

For generations, The Koehler Method of Dog Training has been a beacon of wisdom for dog owners seeking effective techniques to build a strong bond with their furry companions.
