The Dog Listener |
| |
|
Jan Fennell, a dog trainer with over 30 years of experience, explains her method of humane dog training. Based on the premise that, in order to properly train a dog, a human must relate to the dog on its own level of understanding, the author suggests that humans treat dogs the way dogs treat each other in the wild. In short, dog owners must prove themselves to be not just another member of the dog pack but the actual alpha dog--the leader of the pack. As the "alpha dog" the human will then set the parameters for proper behavior. This method of dog training does not rely on force but rather on a system of rewards. |
