Dog Training That Works-as Simple as ABC!

If you're a dog owner, you're already a trainer. From the moment you bring your dog home, you're teaching him how to behave-and, without realizing it, you could be instilling undesirable behaviors that have to be unlearned. Now, there's a simple, no-nonsense way to effectively and humanely train your pet-and get the right results. In ABC Practical Guide to Dog Training, Steven Appelbaum, an expert with over 25 years of professional experience training thousands of dogs and hundreds of professional dog trainers, shares his secrets to help you get your dog to behave-giving you tried, true, and tested techniques that work.

• What "pack theory" is-explained in a way that finally makes sense
