Descripción: A Comprehensive Dog Training Course in a Book, with Step-by-Step Photos and GuidanceDesigned for quick reference while working with your dog, this large-format guidebook features the full gamut of training exercises — each illustrated with photos and clear instructions. It offers a wealth of ways to approach various dogs and scenarios, whether you’re training a puppy to sit or correcting training issues in a mature dog. Michael Wombacher, a trainer with decades of experience, knows all the competing dog training theories but also knows that in reality, it is a range of methods that gets dogs and their humans where they need to be. His Integrated Dog Training is a much-needed commonsense approach that avoids cookie-cutter dictates and recognizes the individuality of each dog. He includes straightforward discussions of situation-specific equipment, treats, and commands, as well as a variety of age- and environment-variable approaches. Easy-to-use, image-driven, and immediately applicable, this is a truly unique, invaluable resource that gets people and dogs in sync and happy lifelong.Review“For readers seeking a get-it-done training manual, this inexpensive, thorough guidebook offers exceptional guidance without a lot of distraction.”— Library Journal“Michael Wombacher has a lovely attitude toward life and the joy that canine companionship can bring to it. Over the past twenty-five years, he has trained four of our poodles. They’ve all been happy and confident, beautifully behaved, and easy with family and friends. They’ve all learned fun tricks, but it’s the affectionate steadiness he has instilled in them for which we are most grateful.”— Michael Tilson Thomas, artistic director of the New World Symphony, music director laureate of the San Francisco Symphony, and conductor laureate of the London Symphony Orchestra“With decades of hands-on experience, Mike Wombacher is extremely talented. In this book, he brings this talent to bear on simplifying an often-confusing process. His methods and tools are broken down into bite-size lessons, and the included training plan makes them easy to digest. Mike understands that neither every dog nor every owner learns the same way. That’s why he has provided multiple approaches to dealing with various training issues. This makes Integrated Dog Training both an essential guide for new dog owners and a must-have reference for professional trainers. Using these methods, anyone can learn to teach their dog impulse control and to look to them for guidance and authority. No other book out there more thoroughly captures the essence of communicating with your dog while training her to be a lifelong companion.”— Lauren Goldboss, founder and president of Who Let the Dogs Out, San Francisco“Michael Wombacher has successfully trained many of my clients’ dogs with a variety of behavioral problems, applying his well-rounded knowledge of what works and what doesn’t. I have referred many clients to him over the years, and it has been a joy to hear about how much their dogs changed after a few training sessions. I have always admired him for his constant exploration of canine behavior and for integrating new techniques for evidence-based canine behavior modification. I loved reading through Integrated Dog Training and feel that every dog owner who wants a well-trained dog should read this book.”— Shruti Vaikhary, DVM, Camino Alto Veterinary Hospital, Mill Valley, CA“I have known Michael Wombacher professionally for over two decades, going back to my days as a trainer and colleague of his in the San Francisco Bay Area. Mike always enjoyed a great reputation, and I would often seek his feedback on cases or the industry in general. I have never hesitated in referring clients to him, as I always had the utmost confidence that they would be learning from one of the best in the business. Mike’s newest effort, Integrated Dog Training, is a great visual guide to training your do
