About the Book

Whether you already have a dog or are thinking about getting one, this is the book for you. In Dog Care and Training for the GENIUS, Healey Lockett teaches you much more than just how to train your dog to sit or to stay. She teaches you to communicate with your dog, to learn how to read your dog's behavior. She helps you understand the fundamentals of training so that you can effectively teach your dog.

But the most important thing she teaches you is how to develop a deep bond with your dog. Sharing your life with a dog enriches you in so many ways, because a dog is more than just a pet. A dog is your friend and a member of your family.

As a dog parent, you are the one who needs to teach your new family member how to live with you and how to behave in society. Many humans fall far short of their parental obligations, but that won't be you! You are a discerning, compassionate, GENIUS dog parent who practices with your dog and teaches your dog how to behave. And you will learn how to do it without being a stern disciplinarian handing down harsh edicts from on high. On the contrary; training is fun! You and your dog will be become best buds if you sincerely put in the time and follow Healey's recommendations.
