This marvelous book tells how a car-chasing, useless pup was transformed into a magnificient dog.
Anecdotes of the process are used as parables to show us how even some of our worst
characteristics can be a blessing, when we stop trying to use them in self-serving ways and use them
to serve God's will and purposes. I highly reccomend this book for anyone in a 12 step program, or
for anyone attempting to train a stockdog. Emphasis on time, routine, repetition, consistency.

William Koehler thought his is
the only correct method for every person and every dog. NOT so! But, the truth is that his training
techniques are the basis for easily two thirds of all the training manuals on the market. His methods
were never meant to be used on puppies or any "sensitive" and "eager to please" dog. English Shepherd owners are advised to consult Basic Training Tips for English Shepherds. Hardcover. |

I love my dog so much and we have such a bond that I have to admit that, like so many people who
love their pets, I have been guilty of trying to see only the human attributes in her.No wonder training
has been progressing so slowly! Jean Donaldson's book has given me a whole new perspective - to
appreciate dogs in their own unique way, and to finally realize that they are another species of being,
not just children in fur! Thanks, Jean- and I am sure my dog would thank you too - she has been
trying to be a dog but I have insisted on trying to make her a human. RETURN AND ORDER HERE PLEASE Paperback. |
