It features a program of positive reinforcement and no-fail techniques that author Dawn Sylvia-Stasiewicz used to train the White House dog, Bo Obama, and each of Senator Ted Kennedy’s dogs, among countless others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eTraining the Best Dog Ever \u003c\/i\u003erelies on trust and treats, not choke collars; on bonding, not leash-yanking or reprimanding. The five-week training program takes only 10 to 20 minutes of practice a day and works both for puppies and for adult dogs that need to be trained out of bad habits. Illustrated with step-by-step photographs, the book covers hand-feeding; crate and potty training; and basic cues—\u003ci\u003esit, stay, come here\u003c\/i\u003e—as well as more complex goals, such as bite inhibition and water safety. It shows how to avoid or correct typical behavior problems, including jumping, barking, and leash-pulling. Plus: how to make your dog comfortable in the world—a dog that knows how to behave in a vet’s office, is at ease around strangers, and more. In other words, the best dog ever.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Larry Kay","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback Trade paperback (US)","offer_id":31700461256766,"sku":"9780761168850","price":25.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0112\/1065\/3760\/products\/BNCImageAPI_62ecefba-7378-4df9-bf3b-aaf33da8d0fb.jpg?v=1586893283","url":"https:\/\/onceuponabookstore.ca\/products\/9780761168850","provider":"Once Upon a Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
