Inhaltsangabe

This guide shows how, by simple, practical steps combined with the right attitude, any dog owner can produce a docile, biddable pet that is a pleasure to own. The success of the author's methods comes from knowledge of the instincts, temperament and purpose of different breeds - the result of many years living with working dogs. Aspects of dog training covered include: the peculiarities of various breeds - why some are reluctant to return to hand, others are natural stock worriers and yet others are so hyperactive that they are impossible to live with; why certain breeds are more feared than others, and the problems associated with owning such breeds; how to control a dog in the countryside, and how to discourage the chasing of cats and sheep; restraint training (sit, lie, stay) and why it is important for a dog to be taught restraint; why and how a dog should be taught to jump; new ideas about reward and punishment.
