Expanded Description:
Have fun while training! This method gives your dog choices, then you simply reward him for making the correct choice. This gives him credit for being an intelligent, sensitive creature who enjoys working when we allow him to think for himself. This happy attitude assures your dog will work joyfully and correctly--in other words, he will love to work!! Stresses the drive instinct in the dog, and is a step-by-step manual to teach you how to train your dog for winning obedience. Popular with both Schutzhund and competitive obedience customers. Deals with the novice exercises: heeling, sit, stay, down, stand, recall.
Sheila Booth has trained dogs in a variety of disciplines for 40 years, but she always
considers her dogs primarily companions. She combines her profession as an
editor/journalist with her passion for dogs, and hopes to help others make training more
fun. She lives in Virginia with her dog and 2 cats (all from rescue).

Better than expected, December 1, 2014 |
Reviewer: C Munden |
To my great suprise this book turned out to be better than expected. My first thought on schutzhund training was that it was going to be more strict with heavy corrections, but this book proved to me that this did not have to be the way.
There is great information on not only positive training methods but also on recongnizing when its just a mistake or if its truly a disobedience.
Cant want to work on some of this with my small dog. |

Great for Anyone!, March 13, 2008 |
Reviewer: GSDmom |
My dog was happily heeling along within a few minutes. None of the corrections or steering just a happy dog enjoying some rewards. The book is great at describing the exercises in a concise way. It also takes you through a logical sequence that will help keep you on track. Easy to use with younger dogs who may not be ready for anything stressful but need some structure in their lives. |

Not Just for Schutzhund Training!, July 22, 2006 |
Reviewer: working_dogz |
My first obedience dog had high working drive and was an easy dog to train for a beginner in competitive obedience like myself. However, I found myself challenged with my second obedience dog, which lacked any working drive, but had high food and play drives. I found this book to be a tremendous help in learning how to build her working drive into a competitive obedience dog. It also developed my interest in the sport of schutzhund, which I am now training my first obedience dog in. |
