How to Train Your Dog
By Jen Tate & Ryan Tate
Harry Hartog's review
I wish I had this book before I had my two terrors! Jen & Ryan Tate have been trainers in the animal industry for years and they bring this wealth of knowledge in this easy to understand and informative book. Utilising a holistic approach to training, they make sure that owners understand that dogs have been bred for thousands of years with different and specific purposes for each breed - a fact that ultimately affects how each dog responds to their world, their owners and their training. If you have a dog, are getting a new puppy or even just thinking about getting a furry companion, this is a MUST READ! It will save you so much, not only in frustration and stress, but cleaning and repair bills! - Josh, Harry Hartog Green Hills
