RSPCA: Pocket Dog Training (RSPCA)

You'll find sections on how a dog's mind works, equipment, house-training and simple commands for your new puppy, more advanced training for junior and adult dogs, and cures for long-term bad habits. At each point brief instructions accompany clear pictures always with the emphasis on positive, loving care. Dog training ideas have changed for the better over the last ten years and this manual brings you up to date with a very welcome and effective new concept. This is based on avoiding negative situations and scolding, and instead accentuating the positive by anticipating and rewarding good behaviour.

Finally, with all its pictures of delightful dogs of every breed this book is a pure pleasure for all dog lovers just to look at - it's a must for new dog owners and excellent value.
