Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book is fabulous. As the first-time owner of a dog (a big, energetic lab at that), I was looking for help, and Kathy Santo's advice is right on. Her technique is based on the premise that each dog is an individual, and is motivated to learn in a very specific way. Her explanations are quite clear and very entertaining. Some of the examples and turns of phrase were so funny, I laughed out loud.
I've been worried about being able to keep our dog safe from cars and other animals, and to keep her from jumping on kids and older people, all without stifling her enthusiasm and happy lab personality. Kathy's suggestions have already begun working a miracle of obedience. Buy this book if you have a dog. Run to buy it if you have a dog behavior problem. Now if I could only use these methods on my husband...

Whether you have a puppy or an adult dog, a home- or sleep-wrecker (or both), whether your dog has ingrained bad manners or simply hasn't learned any good ones yet–Kathy Santo shines a light into the dark bedlam of life with an unruly dog. The secret of her ebullient and innovative guide to training: dogs are individuals, and any dog's nature depends far less on his breed or pedigree than most training methods suppose. In easy steps, you can quickly determine your dog's "personality"–the interplay of prime motivations, energy level, work ethic, and emotional profile–to tailor a regimen optimally suited to his learning needs. Where "one-size" programs typically founder in canine chaos and human frustration, the Santo method carries you past failure: even when your dog doesn't respond, your understanding of him deepens and leads you to a better strategy. This unique interactive approach–based on the author's twenty years of experience–not only speeds canine learning but also lifts training from a temporary chore to an increasingly relaxed way of life. The result is a lifetime of improving obedience–an ever more confident and happy dog, and an ever more gratifying relationship for you both.
