Synopsis

YOUR DOG ISN'T THE PROBLEM. YOUR HABITS ARE.

You've repeated the command five times. Your dog ignored you all five times. Sound familiar?

Whether your dog pulls on the lead, jumps on guests, barks at everything, or goes over-threshold around other dogs — the patterns that make training feel impossible rarely start with the dog. They start with us.

In Bad Human, Good Dog, professional trainers Pascal and Michelle Cazin of The K9 Clan don't hand you a bag of one-off tricks. They give you a simple framework for understanding why your dog does what they do — and how changing your own behaviour unlocks the dog you've always wanted.

Inside, you'll discover:

  • How to stop accidentally teaching your dog to ignore you
  • Why your dog doesn't respect your commands — and what to do differently
  • The truth about positive reinforcement (it goes way beyond treats)
  • How to read your dog's body language and respond before things escalate
  • How to handle loose leash walking, jumping, and reactivity with the same simple approach
  • Why a tired dog isn't always a calm dog — and what actually creates a settled dog
  • How to build a balanced routine that meets your dog's real needs — mental, physical, and emotional

…and much more, from managing over-threshold moments to building the kind of relationship where your dog actually wants to work with you.

Every short chapter ends with Human Homework: one small, specific action you can take with your dog today. No jargon. No guilt. No complicated routines — just a clear way of thinking about training that works alongside any method or technique you already use.

Puppy, teenager, or rescue. Easygoing or reactive. Bad Human, Good Dog meets you where you are — and helps you become the calm, confident human your dog has been waiting for.
