Life with a dog can—and should—bring companionship, fun, and joy! But life with a badly behaved dog can bring frustration and heartbreak.

Behavior problems are often cited as the main reason for owners' abandoning their dogs to shelters and surrendering them to rescues. But many of a dog's problems can be resolved by a caring owner who's willing to devote a little time to positive training. If you're concerned about your dog's behavior, what you need is reliable help, and fast!

In The Dog Behavior Problem Solver, dog-behavior expert and certified trainer Teoti Anderson shares her knowledge and experience with dog owners, offering insight into why dogs do what they do while showing caregivers how to implement reward-based methods with their dogs in clear, easy-to-follow steps, to begin the process of eliminating unwanted behaviors.

At 224 info-packed pages, this book is your key to resolving many of the most common dog behavioral problems that pet owners encounter. Inside, you'll find a wealth of tried-and-true positive training techniques that will help you eliminate undesirable behavior while strengthening your relationship with your dog.

Learn the importance of using positive, reward-based methods, such as clicker training, to teach foundational behaviors while building and strengthening the dog/owner bond upon which all training is based. Get a professional's take on canine behavior and misbehavior, with authoritative, professional advice to help you better understand your dog and why he behaves the way he does. Learn the author's training philosophy and how she applies it with her canine clients. Explore case studies, based on real dogs, about the most common behavior issues that dogs exhibit and how positive training helped them overcome behavioral obstacles.
