À propos de cet audio

Widely regarded as the anti-Cesar Millan by dog owners and experts, Tamar Geller's nonaggressive approach to dog training is based on love, play, and mutual respect between dog and owner - much like how a wolf plays with its young. Using a combination of child psychology and animal behavior science, Geller revolutionized the way Americans train their dogs and has won the approval of the Humane Society, for which she is a longtime adviser.

Now she expands on her play-training methods and offers a day-by-day, easy-to-follow plan for raising a happy and well-mannered canine. In this step-by-step guide, Geller gives dog owners all the essential training instructions, insights, and tips, including housebreaking, socialization, commands, hand signals, games, developing a routine, and much more.

Throughout, Geller explains theories on how dogs think and breaks down dogs' basic needs in simple yet engaging language. She also makes fascinating connections between raising a puppy and the process of nurturing a toddler that will shed new light on dog training. Whether it's a new puppy from the pet store or a rescue dog from the pound, this is the ultimate go-to reference for anyone who decides to bring a new dog into their home - or improve the behavior of the family dog in just one month. Turns out, you can teach an old dog new tricks!

Ce que les critiques en disent

"The Loved Dog method is nothing short of a revolution. Tamar Geller shows us a pathway beyond punishment, and reminds us that understanding and respect are the key words in dog training in the twenty-first century. Now these common-sense and humane principles are set out clearly in a single, accessible volume." (Wayne Pacelle, President and CEO, The Humane Society of the United States)

Good for total beginners. 2.5 stars

The narration in this audiobook is very engaging.

As a dog enthusiast, I was excited to read this book. she is spot on about not using punishment and aversion methods. I was happy to listen to something popular, not by the "dog whisperer" ("Bully" would be better). Though I think this is a good starting point for some people, my overall dislike comes down to 3 main points:

1) Celebrities. There is so much name-dropping. After reading her initial book before, I'm sick to death of hearing about Oprah Winfrey, and I like Oprah! Just talk to us about the dogs, please. There are still too many celeb stories. The self-promotion is really off-putting. Instead of telling us how Garth Brooks was so impressed that he insisted you fix your friends dog, why not refer to the owner and their dogs? To quote my good friend Shania, "that don't impress-uh me much!"

2) Pseudo-Science. The author mentions a lot of studies that she never cites, describes, or summarizes. She tells you what to do based of anecdotes of desert wolf behaviour (trust me, try "level 8" on a timid dog or defensive dog and see if that dog listens or develops a phobia/aggression). Her recommendation for diet? Bogus. You can cook for your dog. Why on earth would I want to get salmonella from dog kisses? There are outbreaks of this stuff in people in the US all the time, thanks to boneheaded advice like this. Her first book had less of this allusion to the all-knowing "studies."

3) The author has some views expressed that come off as catty. Mentioning how women turn their wonderful husband's into frogs? Sometimes comes off as "women, amirite guys?" This wasn't as off-putting as the first 2, but felt weird.

The dog training content is 4/5, the personal stories are 3/5, the pseudoscience and celebrity stuff is grating by the end, and a 0/5.

Overall, please provide more positive reinforcement training, luring, and shaping, less Garth Brooks and bizarre angry faces, and weird relationship stuff. Stars because she has done wonderful work for dogs and promotes positive reinforcement.
