Because your dog will finally start obeying your commands with the simple, but effective techniques in Secrets to Dog Training.

Secrets to Dog Training has quickly become one of the best selling dog training manuals on the Internet. And with good reason.

Nearly everything you could ever need to know is there. And if it isn’t, then it’s probably in one of the many bonuses that come with it.

At over 180 pages, it may seem daunting, but everything is presented in such a way that makes it easy to read and understand. But that doesn’t mean it lacks substance. Daniel’s style is straight ahead and right to the point, without all the fluff.

You’ll find that training your dog to be obedient isn’t all that difficult if you have the desire and patience.

Another thing I liked about Secrets to Dog Training is that one of the bonuses that come with the ebook is the Secrets to Dog Training audio. Some of us are readers, while some of us are listeners. Whichever one you are, now you can go either way. I like to read the book while I listen to the audio at the same time. It just seems to sink in better.

As far as the other bonuses are concerned, I have to be honest. It seems that every time I look at the sales page, the bonuses are different, so you will have to check to find the flavor of the week.

But from my experience, if Daniel changes something, it is for the better. I especially like the free email consultation you get as a bonus. No book, audio, or video can possible anticipate every problem you may have and this is the perfect solution. There is even a members forum, where dog owners like yourself can exchange ideas and stories.

At $37.00 (at the time of this review), the price is in line, if not lower, than other comparable dog training books, so that makes it a good value.

If dog training videos are more your style, when you place your order, you have a chance to upgrade to the Premium Package, which gives you these extra goodies.

If you are like me, you can’t much lazier than that. About the only thing it doesn’t do is come to your house and train your dog for you.

Is it worth the extra $59.95? That’s up to you. Like I said, I’m lazy, so these videos were perfect for me. And the “Secrets to Dog Training Pro” Software was like a bonus within a bonus.

Bottom line, if you own a dog and are tired of him or her ruling the house, you can’t go wrong with Secrets to Dog Training, weather you get the premium package or not.

Secrets of a Professional Dog Trainer is written by Adam Katz. Does anybody else find it ironic that a book about dog training is written by a guy named Katz?

Anyway, as dog training books go, this one is a thorough, if not somewhat lengthy ebook that covers much more than simple training. It begins when you first decide to get a puppy.

From beginning to end, there is very little left uncovered. But don’t let it’s length fool you. Secrets of a Professional Dog Trainer is a “meat and potatoes” manual. No fluff, no hype.

With everything this manual teaches you, you would expect the price to be a lot higher than your average dog training book. But comparatively speaking, I think the book alone is a bargain at the price.

I usually don’t get excited about bonuses, because most are junk throw-ins, but not this time.

Here’s just a couple of bonuses you get.

“Eight Secrets To Becoming The “Alpha Dog!”
In my opinion, this is a classic case of putting the cart before the horse. Many dogs, if not most, like to think that they are the boss. They do what they want, when they want, and how they want. And sadly, it’s owners actions only reinforces that behavior.

Before you can effectively train any dog, you have to show them who’s the boss. You must become “The Alpha Dog“, the leader. Once you’ve done that, everything else just sort of falls into place.

The “Eight Secrets To Becoming The “Alpha Dog” ebook teaches you how. It even comes in a mp3 audio for those times when you’re on the go. In fact, several of the free bonuses come in audio form.

But the very best bonus is the free Unlimited Consultations through their private, members-only forum, where you can interact with other members and ask for help on any dog related problem you may have. It’s moderated by a team of dog experts, including Adam himself, so you are sure to get sound professional advice.

This forum is part of the members-only subscription site and it’s free for the first 30 days, after which you can choose to renew. But even if you do not renew, that still gives you a month of free consultations. There are even live chat sessions.

Bottom line. If you like to sit in front of your TV and watch dog training videos of other people training dogs, then this probably isn’t for you. But if you want an obedient, well-behaved dog and are willing to put in the effort, then you need “Secrets of a Professional Dog Trainer“.

Puppy training can be a lot of hard work, but it can also be fun. This is the most important part of your pet’s life because while he is still young, most of the groundwork for future behaviour will be laid. Make sure you get off on the right foot by starting to teach him early, and being consistent with your commands and training.

Crate training puppies is something you can start the minute you bring your new puppy home. Set him up his own personal area, and let him gradually become comfortable in it. Crate training can help in all future training, so it is a great place to start. Since puppies have not yet developed sufficient bladder control, they should be crated for relatively short periods of time at first, with the length of time gradually increased. Once they are adapted to their crate, you can begin house breaking.

Potty training puppies can be a lot of fun and is the perfect time to create the bond between you and your new friend that will last a lifetime. Make sure you have plenty of time in the beginning, as well as lots of patience. Potty training will not happen overnight, but it gives you and your pet plenty of time to spend together. By using positive reinforcement instead of punishment, your puppy will quickly become eager to please. This will build trust, and make future training easier.

Dog puppy training will also involve stopping chewing and biting. To stop puppy biting, show him that biting physically hurts you. Leave him alone when he bites you, showing him that he will also lose attention and a playmate if he continues biting.

To stop puppy chewing, you need to make sure he has plenty of appropriate chew toys and bones. Do not allow him access to anything off limits, and if he is caught chewing on something, replace it with a chew toy. For large objects such as furniture you may also need to use a safe chemical spray that will discourage puppy chewing.

Obedience training for puppies is extremely crucial. Puppy obedience training will teach your pet what you expect from him, and will familiarise him with the basic commands you will use for the rest of his life. Always be consistent and positive during puppy dog training.

One of the most important puppy training tips is simply to be patient and loving.

Training a puppy will take time, but losing patience will do nothing except hurt the process.

Training your puppy can be a lot of fun if you approach it with the right attitude!
