Description

Dog training methodology is an increasingly hotly contested topic.

A number of vocal trainers insist that dogs should be instructed through exclusively positive reinforcement, and that training should be totally force-free.

Popularized through social media, the force-free training movement has grown into a lucrative, billion-dollar industry, but the consequences may outweigh the positives. This book examines the current state of dog training and discusses ethical alternatives to force-free methods.

Chapters cover the history of dog training, common myths, equipment, and the merits of balanced training methods that don't dogmatically avoid occasional force.
