TWO DVD SET...
DISC ONE: Pet Obedience Class Instruction
Is it possible to teach pet dog obedience classes without physical
compulsion or coercion of any kind? Can an all "positive" pet obedience
class be successful? Yes! And the students love it! Leslie illustrates
enlightened techniques she uses in her "Family Dog" program for
instructing pet obedience classes, behavior consultations, and problem
solving. She introduces the Really Reliable Recall in her class
instruction and her program for balancing the pet owner and dog
relationship through the relationship PEGS (Playing, Eating, Grooming,
Sleeping).
DISC TWO: Teaching Pet People
This lecture is a thorough explanation of what punishment does, why
it is inappropriate for pet dog trainers and where traditional class
structure fails the pet dog student. Leslie includes video examples of
strategies from her own classes for setting up the human half of the dog
and owner team for success. |

Easy to follow steps teach your dog to come when
called.
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.
Really Reliable Recall teaches you more
- How to apply the principles of positive dog
training to the recall.
- How to build a relationship between you and
your dog based on trust.
- How to use a "marker" and reinforcers when
training.
BONUS! Teaches how to work with hard to
train breeds like hounds and terriers.

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. |

Written by
Leslie Nelson, this booklet explains in detail how to teach
the Really Reliable Recall, a highly effective, easy to
follow method used to teach your dog to come immediately
the first time you call him. This booklet is written
with the pet owner in mind but is also a great resource for
Family Dog instructors. It makes a great addition to a puppy
packet.
"The Really Reliable Recall is
dedicated to all the wonderful Afghan Hounds I have shared
my life with, who, with patience and persistence have helped
me understand how precious it is to have a dog come to you,
to the thousands of students, both canine and human, who
have added to that knowledge and, finally, to all the dogs
everywhere who need a really reliable recall, so they too
can run free." Leslie Nelson |
