TRAINING THE BEHAVIOR, by Gary Patterson, is about developing and training a working dog by starting and working outward from the dog's mind. Where traditional training for sport and service dogs has centered on making the dog enter the trainer's world of thinking, this book reverses the process by examining how the trainer can take the dog's view of its world and mold it into a positive and confident relationship with the handler. Instead of force and incomplete training results, the reader will find there is an alternative of manipulating the dog's natural desire to work with the trainer that can only result in clarity in the dog and the picture of a relationship in training that all dog owners want. This book shows that this approach is simpler than you might think, even if it isn't always easy.
The 29 chapters cover everything the beginning or advanced trainer needs to know about concepts and details that confront the working dog trainer in day to day training sessions.
