All Dogs Great and Small: What I’ve learned training dogs

Product Information

He enjoyed it so much he quit Weetabix and put a notice in the local paper, advertising his services as 'The Dogfather'. I’ve read countless training guides before and never described one as gripping, but this book had me hooked from the start. Measureing and manageing this meter will vary from dog to dog but it will certainly not be from 0 to 100%. Unlike my walking friend, I don't believe things have to end badly for the pandemic pet owners — even though a few of them do need to invest in some better footwear, take off the headphones and stop dropping their crisp packets.

Later in the book Graeme talks about about dogs "understanding" or responding to different languages. He includes amusing anecdotes and talks fondly of his two Rottweilers Axel and Gorden, who have now sadly died. Eighties singer sends fans (and famous pals Michelle Pfeiffer and Julianne Moore) WILD as she shows off her looks at 65 - but do YOU know who it is?I have an extremely anxious rescue Dachshund with many issues and am always looking out for helpful dog training tips.

His motto is ‘Any dog, any age, any problem’ and he has built a glowing reputation on providing quick but long-lasting fixes. Going to have a rerun listen so that I can really digest his advice, read by the author, love his dulcet tones, highly recommend this book.

This is one I listened to on Audible and I think that hearing some of Graeme's stories in his own voice made it all the more enjoyable. Graeme perfectly translates his excellent communication skills into this book and complex behaviour is made as simple as possible for the reader to understand. They process that information faster than we do by reading our forehead wrinkles, nose flaring and ears. The ‘Dogfather’ Graeme Hall is a top dog trainer and the presenter of hit Channel 5 show ‘Dogs Behaving (Very) Badly’, helping the nation’s dog owners with their troubled pets. He’s worked from the Scottish Highlands to the Channel Islands (and pretty-much everywhere in between).

A lot of this book is about understanding and reading your dog to understand how to train them and what they might be thinking which I think is probably more helpful than “do this” and “do that” although on the face of it you might think it’s not telling you a lot. Hopefully in the next few years I’ll get a German Shepherd or Cavalier King Charles; not only is this book funny and engaging it, was really informative on dog psychology and behaviour as well as that of humans.I love working with puppies because there is so much potential to make a lasting difference to a dog's life and to their owner's. Measure what level they start at and how fast they go up and not to be overlooked, what level of excitement/fear that YOU are at. Much of dog training boils down to common sense and consistency: reward good behaviour and ignore the bad stuff until the dog learns it's unproductive.
