About this product

Product Information

Training the Best Dog Ever , originally published in hardcover as The Love That Dog Training Program , is a book based on love and kindness. 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. Training the Best Dog Ever relies 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-- sit, stay, come here --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.

    Positive Reinforcement Works

    I have not trained a puppy since 1994, things have changed! This book had some great ideas examples and pictures. Some of it is complicated or difficult to do. This trainer is a stay at home person, I don’t have time to hand feed every meal of kibble. It’s hard to retrain old habits, like only use the dogs name for good, not when they are doing something bad. So got a good start w puppy but will be going to a live trainer to help train me.

  • Seems great

    Haven't really been able to start training due to sickness and death in family. But from what I can tell from scanning through, it looks well written and very informative.

    Helped me with my pup. Everyone comments on how well behaved he is. I think it was my favorite of all the training books I read and the one I always recommend. Easy to follow instructions.
