The typical Labrador Retriever is relatively easy to train. The author takes readers step-by-step through her method, which emphasizes positive reinforcement. Also covered are humane methods of breaking a dog's bad habits, such as begging, jumping on people, unnecessary barking, and biting. Each book is filled with instructive full-color photos.
I have a lab beagle mix and wanted to learn about the lab side. This book was very informative - nice history of the origin of labs; general dog care, health, training and tricks, test for temperament and IQ; and characteristics of labs that can assist with training and raising an obedient dog.
