Description
Train your dog using social learning with this comprehensive guide. Recent research has shown that dogs can imitate human behavior, making it easier to teach new skills. This book presents the Do As I Do protocol, which involves demonstrating a behavior and then teaching the dog to repeat it. By following this method, you can build a stronger bond with your dog and make training more enjoyable. The updated edition includes new insights into canine social learning, providing a deeper understanding of how dogs think and learn. A key modification to the original protocol reflects the importance of the Foundation Phase, which is crucial for success in subsequent stages. With this book, you'll learn how to harness your dog's natural ability to observe and imitate human behavior, making it easier to teach new skills such as ringing a bell or jumping over hurdles.
