(More customer reviews)Just about anyone can write a book about dog training but it takes a deeper connection to be able to combine practical training with spiritual sensitivity of dog psychology and personal development. Nij has been able to speak to those who want to be able to work with the dogs they already have versus buying and selling dogs until they feel they have found "the right one". He rightly points out that if you have to work with what you have it forces you to understand why the dogs are not performing to their potential and along this path of understanding you will be forced to develop your own personal skills of patience and confidence, becoming the team leader so as to maximize both your and your dog's potential. Although considered to be a training book, Sheepdog Training and Trials speaks more to the handler expressing the importance of developing an attitude of confidence in your own actions that will not only carry over to your training, but to every other aspect of your life.

This comprehensive book describes innovative ways of training sheepdogs and addresses a number of subjects that have not been adequately covered in previous publications; such as working with sensitive dogs and dogs lacking in confidence, the "square movement," and the "concept of opposites." Written by an acknowledged expert, Sheep Dog Training and Trials discusses in a variety of settings new concepts such as the author's theory of "passive resistance" and the "pressure on-off technique." In addition, the author considers ways of optimizing a dog's health, energy, fitness, and peak performance. This fascinating book presents contributions from four world-renowned handlers, including the twice world champion Aled Owen, that examine the factors that have influenced them and made them successful.
