About this listen

This book explores the fascinating science of operant conditioning, where science and dog training meet. How Dogs Learn discusses the basic principles of behavior and how they can be used to teach your dog new skills, diagnose problems, and eliminate unwanted behaviors. It's for anyone who wants to better understand the learning process in dogs. Every concept is laid out clearly and precisely, and its relevance to your dog and how you train is explained.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Great book

Love this book. Have read and/or listened to it more than once, always learn something new. The narrator was easy to understand.

Great information on how dogs think to in compliment dog classes…

There are a lot of acronyms which are tough to follow in the audible version without the pdf in hand. I still recommend the book. That made it tough for the narrator.
