Dog Behavior Training – Dog Training To Correct Behavior Problems
Have you ever wished that the secrets of dog behavior training were available to anyone who wished to take their dog obedience training to a new level? The truth is that proper dog training can be simple for anyone who is willing to educate themselves on the best way to communicate with man’s best friend. […]
Dog Training For Dumbies is a great book and you dont have to be a dumby!
This isn’t strictly a training book but it has a lot of training information in it, any of the “Dummies” books. I have purchased “Pit bulls for dummies” and “Labs for Dummies” and they are full of really useful information specifc to each breed including how you train them. You can find them anywhere are are a great tool. Good luck!
“How to be your dog’s best friend”, by the monks of New Skete. It’s a terrific book on how to view life and dogs, and training flows from that.
For what breed?
I have “Idiots Guide: Positive Dog Training” and it’s a great, easy book to use and understand.
I also got “The Dog Bible” – best book ever!! It has EVERYTHING, including dog training tips and tricks.
I Recommend to get the great dog training book from clickertraining:
For the basics, you can’t beat this one ( and its cheap)http://cgi.ebay.com/ASPCA-COMPLETE-DOG-T…
But this is also a great method, and fun:http://www.clickerlessons.com/
These dogs were all trained by the latter method:http://video.google.com/videosearch?hl=e…
