The Art of Training Your Dog

How to Gently Teach Good Behavior Using an E-Collar

By: The Monks of New Skete, Marc Goldberg

Narrated by: Daniel Henning

A brand-new training regimen-off-leash in 30 days! - from the pack who brought you The Art of Raising a Puppy.

The Monks of New Skete, longtime breeders of German shepherds and established dog trainers of all breeds, have developed a new training technique. A decade in the making, this program represents a leap into the future, using cutting-edge technology and a game-changing tool: the remote electronic collar.

The Art of Training Your Dog presents their compassionate and efficient system for the first time, with background and advice on choosing the right collar. Employing a method designed by trainer Marc Goldberg, listeners integrate the e-collar gradually, laying the foundation for good behavior with intentional and purposeful walks.

Using very low stimulation at just the right time focuses a dog's attention for effortless learning moments that tie into a dog's natural pack instincts and help strengthen the bond between dog and human. In no time, listeners will see their pups master commands like "sit", "stay", and "place"; stop troublesome behaviors; and run safely off-leash with consistent recall.

Most helpful and encouraging to take on the task of training on a schedule

I enjoyed the book, beginning with it’s history, explanation’s of how and why you need to complete each task before going forward. Unfortunately I did have to buy a hard copy of this book, because it kept referring to the list of things needed to train your dog and schedule. I thought that there would be a pdf to download.

I wish I’d noticed the ecollar focus

This seemed like a fine book but I didn’t realize it was focused on ecollars. Since I’m not using one on my dog it just wasn’t that helpful. FYI in case you like me don’t pick up on that!

Excellent Book for dog training

I really enjoyed listening to this book, so much that I also ordered it to have as a hard copy reference. I've learned so much and have shared it with friends.

Well done

Really helped me with my egcollar training. Helped me to better understand how I affect situations and be better for my dog.

A lot of backstory, but still good info

I am a fan of the Monks of New Skete and liked there books 'The Art of Raising a Puppy' and 'Let Dogs be Dogs'. This book covered a lot of the same ground, and spent a lot of time on backstory, but I learned a lot about e-collars and appreciated the teaching descriptions for how to use an e-collar as an aid (it is one component of an overall process) to dog training.
