If dogs could talk and people really listened How to solve your human-dog problems the right way! The unique guide in which dog trainers, dog owners and the dogs themselves have their say. This book is no ordinary dog guide! People talk about dogs. We’re used to that. But what if dogs could also tell us something about humans? In his guide *If Dogs Could Talk and People Really Listened*, experienced dog trainer Dirk Lenzen brings both perspectives together. The result of this humorous yet instructive literary device: a three-way conversation between owner, dog and Trainer. Dirk Lenzen uses this stylistic device to help dog owners respond correctly to typical human-dog problems in everyday life. First, the dog owner describes the problem as they perceive it. The owner’s perspective is followed by the dog’s perspective: now the dog explains why it reacts in this way and how its owner’s behaviour might be exacerbating or even causing the problem. Then the ‘Trainer’ has his say, explaining what is going wrong and how the owner can act more effectively. A sort of three-way dialogue ensues, featuring follow-up questions, the trainer’s explanations and the dog’s perspective, culminating in the identification of possible solutions. With the “Tops & Flops” for each relationship pitfall, you are given a summary roadmap: this is what you must do – and this is best avoided. The aim of this somewhat different approach to relationship coaching is for the dog owner to understand how their dog ticks and to learn to “read” them. This makes it easier to manage “couple problems” in future, or even avoid them altogether. In addition, there is a test to prepare for the ‘relationship coaching’: What type of dog owner are you? Because if you can assess yourself better, analysing relationship crises between humans and dogs is guaranteed to be easier.

Müller Rüschlikon Verlag - Clicker training On the positive handling of dogs Dogs and humans are enthusiastic: the training style, which originally comes from American work with dolphins and uses a kind of clicker frog, is now an integral part of dog training. More than a fad, but rather a revolution in dog training, the acoustic signal of the clicker makes it easier for dogs to learn. From everyday training to tricks, everything can be taught to the dog more easily, effectively and positively using the clicker. The dog learns faster and joins in enthusiastically. This method supports all the findings of behavioural research and enables a completely different form of cooperation between humans and dogs.
