Every owner and trainer knows the terror of a dog running off-even out into traffic. Wouldn’t it be great to train a rock-solid recall for just such emergencies? Trainer and popular seminar presenter, Leslie Nelson, shows you how-to-train this life-saving recall in this well-produced DVD. Once established it works immediately, in any situation, no matter what your dog is doing. The dog doesn’t think, doesn’t decide, he just comes to you. It’s not an everyday recall that you use countless times a day. It’s your emergency recall; the one you use when you need instant response. It will keep your dog safe and give you peace of mind.

FAMILY DOG 1 INSTRUCTOR MANUAL
OUTLINE AND LESSON PLANS
Item# B1056 -
$29.95

This instructor manual is intended for the Family Dog Instructors at Tails-V-Win! or other instructors or organizations interested in following all or part of our program. The teaching sections that appear in dark print throughout the manual are also part of the instruction handouts for students. The handouts that we are currently using in our program are located at the back of this manual. They are perforated and can be removed and reproduced if you would like to use them as handouts in your classes. Family Dog 1 is a beginning level class designed for new dog owners and others who want to teach their dog household manners, learn more about canine behavior and learn how to solve common behavioral problems. The program is based on scientific learning theory and uses the most up to date positive reinforcement techniques.

Along with these handouts, we also recommend giving each student the booklets Management Magic item #B1053 and The Really Reliable Recall item #B1052 which are available on this page. The Really Reliable Recall DVD Item #200539 covers in detail this very effective method of teaching the recall. The DVD includes sections on challenging breeds and instructions for teaching it in a class setting. It can also be found on this page.


Management Magic
Item# B1053 -
$5.99

Voted one of the TOP TEN puppy books by the Association of Pet Dog Trainers in its first year of publication!!

Uses the "power of positive" to shape behavior. Using positive reinforcement is not only a powerful and effective learning technique, it is also fun for you and your dog.

To insure your success in any training program, good management is the key. Good management means: Plan ahead to set up for success! The pages have been compiled to help you to be the best manager you can be. You will find suggestions and ideas on how to deal with the many issues facing new dog owners and how to prevent common problems from occurring.

When you first bring a new dog or puppy into your family, it takes a lot of planning and management to set up for success. As your puppy matures or your new dog becomes part of your family, less and less management is required.

This booklet is not meant to address serious behavior problems that your dog may already have. If you have concerns about your dog's behavior, please share these concerns with your instructor as soon as possible, so that you may get the type of individualized help that you need.

Management Magic helps new owners set up for success whether they have a puppy or a new adult dog. It is chock full of information and positive answers for all the common questions that new owners have. It makes a great gift for someone about to get a new puppy or dog. Management Magic is designed to be used as a handout in training classes using positive reinforcement. It is also used as a handout by shelters and rescue groups and many breeders include it in their puppy packs.
