Recommended Books
A well written book can really help you get a new perspective about dogs and dog training. Below you will find some of the best books that we have personally had the privilege to read and recommend.
There are a lot of dog training books that are not available in actual stores, the books sold on eBay is an excellent way to get your hands on them.
101 Dog Tricks
Although a foundation is necessary before you can begin training tricks, this book is one of the best to get inspired, and to get ideas to train tricks. This book lists 101 dog tricks with beautiful step-by-step pictures. It is a definitely a ‘must buy‘ if you are into training tricks.
Don't Shoot The Dog
The author, a previous dolphin trainer, explains in great details how positive conditioning works. This is one of the best books on the subject, although there is no specific training guide in this book, the subject of why and how are just as justified.
The Original Dog Bible
This book is huge, at 752 pages, it covers everything from puppies, health, breeds, training, foods, and more. It has lots of great information that should give some ‘ah-ah‘ moments to even the most experienced dog owner.
On Talking Terms With Dogs
A very small, yet very insightful book shows you how dogs from all over the world communicate with one another, by using visual signals. Once you learn these signals, you can then utilize them in your own training with your dogs.
