Expanded Description:
The dog-training instructor's first job: teaching people!
Our human students require much more attention and understanding than do their canines. If we don't inspire their interest and cooperation, they will not be successful in training their dogs. Dani Weinberg’s experience offers insights, information, and ideas that will help all levels of instructors both develop and maintain dog training enthusiasm and work more effectively with the human students. This two-part book looks at both the student and the instructor.
You will learn:
• Ways to communicate more effectively and how to reach “difficult” students
• How to guide students towards new belief about their dogs
• What type of instructor you are and how you can adapt your type to better assist your students
• How to receive feedback, set yourself up for success, and prevent burnout
What dog trainers say about Teaching People, Teaching Dogs:
This book is conversational and informative…Taking the reader on an interesting journey from non-dog person to dog addict! I believe it will be especially helpful for those contemplating taking the big leap into instructing.
Terry Ryan, Author of Coaching People to Train Their Dogs
When a book like this makes me examine at least one new idea or reconsider an old one, it’s a worthwhile addition to my training library.
Stephanie Colman
You will become a better trainer after reading Dani's book because you'll be more aware of your training style as well as thinking about your students learning style.

Highly recommend this book!, August 7, 2010 |
Reviewer: Deanna Brenner |
This book really reached out to me. Not only in the realm of working with dogs and their people but on a personal level as well. With her years of experience, Dani serves almost as a mentor guiding you through thoughts, feelings and dilemmas that most or all of us have that work in the field.
I took away plenty of information that will help me to become a better teacher and will benefit both students!
Lots of great ideas in this book and its easy to relate to. |

So valuable, September 6, 2009 |
Reviewer: Stevie Mathre |
This book was exactly what I needed! I love that it was written for the instructor rather than the dog owner. There are too few books (and other resources) written for us. Her discussion of different learning styles was invaluable to me. And I can't say what it meant to have her spell out exactly WHAT we're getting paid for. It's far to easy to forget self-care and appreciation when starting a new business... Her book is a tangible reminder that without valuing ourselves, we can't be valuable to others. |

interesting and easy to read, September 14, 2006 |
Reviewer: ZKV |
Very nicely written, from the trainer's perspective I really liked it (could not put it down in fact :) .
The only flaw is that I wish it would be much much longer! |
