Beyond the Backyard: Train Your Dog to Listen Anytime, Anywhere by Denise Fenzi
fast-paced
5.0
VERY nice. This book is a level 102 for most dog owners: The assumption is you’ve already read something else or taken a class to teach your dog how to sit or walk on a loose leash, now here’s how to do it around distractions.
Fenzi uses a very cool two-treat method to reduce the value of distractions while increasing the value of you, and approaches distractions in a clear, reasonable way, starting with a very low value reinforcer and working up to something more exciting--before taking the treats off your body and trying that too.
It gets a bit repetitive but I suppose that’s the point.
