Product Description
The typical Labrador Retriever is relatively easy to train. The author takes readers step-by-step through her method, which emphasizes positive reinforcement. As part of the Training Your Dog Series you will be taught just that; how to train your dog, with special emphasis on your special breed. Virtually every aspect of training is covered, including housebreaking and paper training, basic obedience, teaching the animal to obey both verbal and hand signals, retrieving and walking on a leash. 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. Other breeds featured in this Series are the German Shepherd and the Rottweiler. Paperback / 176 Pages / 6 1/2 x 7 7/8 / 1999

Pretty good book May 12, 2008
I liked the way this book communicates. well written.
It actually explains how to train the dog by giving examples and steps.
I tried some items and have seen them to work.
A good amount of the tips I already knew about and follow out of instinct.
So it is not totally impressive but surely it puts thoughts in a structured context and refreshes old concepts.
Training is not only about when to sit and when to fetch, it is about being able to communicate with your poochie friend. If you cannot communicate, then, you cant train (not predictable results for sure) the poochie.
This book gets to the basics of what actually is being communicated by each (a lot if not all) of general behaviours we go through with our Labs.
All in All, a really good Beginer's book to training.
cheers

I wish I had bought this book first!! My lab is 3 months old - and I wish I had this book when I brough her home! It is excellent - great information for a first-time puppy owner! My husband has even learned a few things - and he has had dogs all his life! I highly recommend this book!!

Training Your Labrador Retriever January 28, 2008
It is a good book but I think it should offer more alternatives, specialy on pups training
Great Book For Novice! September 12, 2007
This book covers all the basics of Labrador care and more! I have had two Labs before and I though I knew everything, but this book helped me in many areas, especially training and obedience!
