This complete guide is a source of wisdom and inspiration for anyone genuinely committed to building a loving and lasting relationship with their dog.
You'll learn:

As can be expected, primary points are about consistent schedule and expectations, regular exercise and quality nutrition as the foundation for a healthy and happy pup. This is not a positive reinforcement type of training, as the monks advocate leash corrections. However, the book includes thorough explanation of the correcting procedure, a small discussion of their philosophy and a warning against over correcting.
