Gentle Dog Training (Paperback)

Some training methods work with some dogs, Michel Hasbrouck's work with all dogs.Training dogs through punishment and discipline fails to understand that dogs want to appreciated and loved. Adopt the right attitude of praise and you will find that they respond better. However, this also entails training the human as much as the dog, become a dog leader rather than an owner. Michel Hasbrouck's methods suit every dog, from puppies to older animals, and every owner. The dog, more than any other animal, has an engaging personality and communicates most easily with humans. The dog is sensitive and aware of subtle changes in emotion so it is important to train it with a philosophy of trust, where the relationship between dog and master becomes unique.
