Synopsis

A brand-new training regimen—off-leash in thirty days!—from the pack who brought you The Art of Raising a Puppy.

The Monks of New Skete, longtime breeders of German shepherds and established dog trainers of all breeds, have developed a new training technique. A decade in the making, this program represents a leap into the future, using cutting-edge technology and a game-changing tool: the remote electronic collar. The Art of Training Your Dog presents their compassionate and efficient system for the first time, with background and advice on choosing the right collar. Employing a method designed by trainer Marc Goldberg, readers integrate the e-collar gradually, laying the foundation for good behavior with intentional and purposeful walks. Using very low stimulation at just the right time focuses a dog's attention for effortless learning moments that tie into a dog's natural pack instincts and help strengthen the bond between dog and human. In no time, listeners will see their pups master commands like "sit," "stay," and "place"; stop troublesome behaviors; and run safely off-leash with consistent recall.

Interesting read! Wealth of information on how to gently train mans best friend using a ecollar. I’m new to the Monks of New Skete but this was an easy guide to training your dog.

Goodreads review by Blake on April 24, 2023

It was decent. The big thing that was beneficial was the way they made the lesson plans easy to understand and replicate. It can be beneficial to dog owners who start their dog off as a puppy. This book isn’t for dogs that have serious problems, which they do mention at the very end of the book. They......more
