Doggy Problems Solved - problem dog behaviour solved by positive reinforcement by Amanda O'Neill (Illustrated, 1 Sep 2009) Paperback

by Amanda O'Neill

Dogs are unique in the way that they participate on our domestic lives. Like children, they share our homes, meet our friends, come with us on holiday, travel with us in the care, play games with us etc, etc. But, also like children, they sometimes have an uncanny knack of embarrasing us in public and creating all sorts of mayhem in private. Whether it's thrusting its nose unerringly towards your maiden aunt's nether regions or using the Persian rug as an impromptu toilet, you know that when a dog steps off the straight and narrow, there will be some explaining or clearing up to do. However, for anyone who's experienced similar embarrassments or annoyances, help is now at hand! Amanda O'Neill analyses what lies behind a multitude of such anti-social behaviours and comes up with a host of sensible suggestions for remedies. Sections Food Foul-Ups, Messy Matters, Sexual Stirrings, Problems with People, Wilful on Walks, Horrible at Home and Doggy Damage.

This book was very informative and interesting and I learned a lot of things I didn't know before about dogs and how to train them. And, just all around the book was very interesting and an easy read. Very good book to read for people that have learning disabilities in reading. I'm actually going to get this one page with a topic that pertains to my dog copied so I can have it and use it to train my dog. And if anyone is interested in what kinds of topics are in the book one of them is about how to get your dog not to bark at other dogs (which is the page I'm getting copied for me, because my dog has that bad behavior). But, all in all it was a very good book.
