Expanded Description:

Training dogs is often simple and straightforward, but sometimes training their owners is a bit more of a challenge. In this book on "people-training for dog trainers," Nicole Wilde shares advice based on years of experience as a professional dog trainer. She teaches the reader the basics of "people training," how to coach clients using positive reinforcement and other techniques. In an often humorous section, Wilde describes specific types of difficult personality types, from Angry Agnes to Unmotivated Mo, and how specifically to deal with them. Also covered are handling students in a group class setting, working one on one in private lessons, and understanding and working with family dynamics. An invaluable resource for any dog trainer.

It's Not The Dogs, It's the People, November 14, 2004
Reviewer: Nancy Herlofsky
Great Book! The author had me in mind when she wrote this terriffic book. As a novice dog trainer, this book made me feel energized, enthused to keep learning. Many training books give the impression that you have to be a brain surgeon, with too much trainer's jargon. This book was easy to read and had a light side, that made you feel like I can do this! Thanks.
