Calm Down!

You've got your new dog, you've got the bowl, the collar and the lead. Now what? This puppy doesn't seem to understand anything you say You got your pet to be your companion - and yet all you seem to do is yell at her

Let's change this right away: instead of focussing on what you don't want your dog to do, focus on what you do want. Instead of having unnecessary battles over trivia, build up terrific games your dog longs to play with you. Soon your unruly dog will be saying, "Yes? What would you like me to do for you?"

And so begins a wonderful partnership. Beverley takes you by the hand and leads you through the games and lessons, step-by-step. There's no strange jargon, no "Thou shalt not's," and every time you get stuck, another solution pops up. Through years of experience teaching new owners how to work with their puppies and dogs - entirely without force - Beverley knows just what you're up against.

This first book in the series shows you how to find your dog's off-switch You'll wonder how anyone manages without this knowledge, and your dog will "get it" very fast.

"I honestly can't believe how easy your book is to follow. My 9-week-old puppy is already lying on his mat as soon as I put it out. This series makes training my pup an absolute pleasure for both of us." Dianne and Ted
