Review of Secrets of a Professional Dog Trainer

Secrets of a Professional Dog Trainer, written by Adam Katz, is a very complete dog obedience training guide. At 316 pages long, this book  is jam packed with relevant and important information for training your dog.

Adam has tons of testimonials from the thousands of satisfied customers he has helped, that attests to the quality and success of his training methods. Adam’s style of dog training relies on positive methods only. His books explains how your dog sees the world, and to understand his point of view. If you learn some dog psychology, you will know how to better communicate with your dog and get better results with your training.

You will learn how to become the Alpha dog, your dog’s pack leader. You need your dog to recognize you as the Alpha leader in order to earn his trust and respect, and get his cooperation when training him. Adam teaches you that a key to getting good results with your training efforts comes from learning how to be the best trainer you can be.

By following your puppies stages of growth until maturity, Adam gives the appropriate lessons for that stage of development. For instance, Adam teaches house training and basic obedience exercises at the start of the course. Eventually Adam’s program takes right up through the most advanced obedience exercises.

In addition to basic obedience training, Secrets of a Professional Dog Trainer has entire sections that pay special attention to solving the various behavior problems that need your attention.  Behavior problems won’t go away on their own, so you need to know how to correct them, and without a good guide, it is really difficult .

Many problems and their solutions are included in this book-including such common misbehaviors as aggression, digging, chewing, biting, chasing (just to name a few). I really like the fact that Adam explains to his readers why a method he teaches actually works. He tells you what a dog’s perspective of a situation is, so you can use that insight to find the best way to correct a particular problem.

Although Secrets of a Professional Dog Trainer is nothing if not thorough, it does not include photos to illustrate certain points. If you are someone who learns new things better by watching and listening than by reading, you may prefer a great video training program. Even without photos, Adam’s book is a fountain of information, and using it will help you have a very well trained and well balanced doggy. Adam offers a 30 day money back guarantee, to show that he is positive you will really enjoy his book and the results it gives you.
