Zak George’s Canine Coaching Revolution: The Full Information to Elevating the Good Pet with Love

SUPER HELPFUL
If you’re thinking about getting a puppy buy this before. I wish we had gotten it sooner. I paid $50 for an app that wasn’t helpful so I ordered this book. It explains EVERYTHING! Helps me understand why our pup is doing the things she’s doing. So helpful with training plan and simple instructions to accomplish goals. Game changer!

Best dog training book I’ve seen
Dogs have a lot to teach us about unconditional love, play, learning to enjoy the small things in life, and not holding grudges. We also have a lot of things to teach our pet, but how can we learn to effectively communicate and train our pup without losing patience? Each dog learns a little differently, but in this book Zak George provides a not only humane way to train, but a way that succeeds. He gives detailed, easy step-by-step training techniques that not only train the dog, but the human as well. The layout is well done and easy to follow and easy to navigate when you’re wanting to work on specific skills. The Kindle edition almost seems a little better, since it has the video links right in the book, but links are easy to find even with physical edition.Outcome So Far:I started watching his Youtube videos when I got two puppies and this book goes into a little more detail on his topics plus a few additional ones. Since adopting his training tips from this book as well as the videos, I’ve seen leaps and bounds in communication with my two dogs. Admittedly, mine came kennel trained, are obsessed with grooming (teeth brushing, fur brushing), loving bath time, ignore cars, and haven’t learned all the tricks he teaches yet (since we haven’t gotten to all of them) so I can’t attest to all the techniques. The ones I’ve tried, however, have done wonders.They sit, they stay consistently (even from far distances and with distractions), His technique for getting them to speak was the only one that worked (I tried about 6 or 7 others out there before I found his). His leash training technique got my dogs walking without pulling in less than 2 weeks and they’re 5 months old. Until I read his section on fetch and teaching a dog how to play Frisbee, I couldn’t get my puppies to play fetch. They no longer puppy bite, steal, and almost have no jumping down. They’re doing a mostly consistent fetch and it’s only been a few weeks. Based on other training techniques I’ve looked at, they’re about where most people expect a 9 months to 1 year old dog to be at. They’re by no means all the way trained, but, as mentioned before, I haven’t got all the way through the book yet. The basic skills, however, are pretty close to meeting expectations and they perform them better than some of my neighbor’s dogs. I’m excited to see where they end up after they’ve graduated from learning all the tricks in this bookI would definitely recommend this book to anyone with a puppy or adult dog who needs help learning the ropes.

Uh c Training my pup
I was greatly disappointed . Not in the author or his information. I am a 95 year old female , blind in one eye trying to train my dog. The print in this book isn’t very large or dark . Would it be possible to replace this book with another book that would be easier for me to use? I would greatly appreciate your assistance.Thank you, Jean Lamparter

A gift for a new puppy and owner!
The book arrived in a timely manner and was in good condition. It looked like something a new puppy owner of a Great Pyrenees desperately needed! It was a gift, so I can’t speak to its quality of advice, but the book was set up in a very readable format, with lots of helpful tips. The puppy owner is enjoying it, or so he says. May his puppy settle down soon!

I had previously read a book from Cesar Millan which I really liked, but it made me thinking that dogs should always be submissive to anything I wanted them to do. Zak’s book has a very friendly approach that I believe can create a bond between the dog and their owner, and it’s what I’ll be following from now on. My dog is 9mo old, I’m with him for 3 weeks now and he already does lots of things at home and in low distraction environments (sit, down, stand, take a bow, fetch, take it, leave it). I’m starting frisbee, but still getting their interest on it. I also recommend sympawtico training, they have great resources.

What an amazing book and what an amazing trainer Zak is. The book is so simple and well written. Easy to understand as well. I just went gliding over the pages and did not even realise that I came so far. The best part is all the training tips given here have an accompanying Youtube video. And unlike other books you can just start reading any section that feels relevant to you for training your dog at the moment (but best to start from the beginning). I just started teaching my 10 week old pup and he is doing so well. Will surely try to teach my older dogs too.The book covers every possible aspect a pet parent would or should know and not just the training tips. I am re-reading and revisiting the pages, it’s that great and helpful.
