Jumabaar Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I am going to ask for books on dog training for christmas and wondered which you would recomend (for a blonde :D )! I have just started clicker training with my pup and do dogsports with kelpies so anything relating to these areas would be helpful! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zug Zug Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Get David Weston's book 'Dog Training - The gentle modern method' Done in the 80s and still a fantastic book. Good clear instructions and pictures - step by step. This is it - you'll find it around at book shops sometimes too: http://www.ozpetshop.com.au/product_info.php/products_id/34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zug Zug Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Hmm, what did I buy...? Jump cups, that book you recommended (Shaping Success), a subscription to the magazine, some cuz toys, some spare clickers... OH then pointed out to me that we have some bills waiting and a car that needs new tyres. None of which is half so much fun now, is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
