“Honey, I just got Pinnacle Studio software. Let me grab the camera and we can make a dog training video. Why don’t you call Marge next door if she wants to be famous, she can be in it too. You guys are a hoot together!”
That is how it came off- unprofessional and silly. They would have benefited from having a script to follow rather than adlibbing it.
The actual training information was really confusing. I got the sense that the dogs were doing what they were doing for the treats and not really learning anything. They say not to bribe but there is no section on how to wean them from doing for treats and doing as they are told.
Education theory includes positive and negative reinforcement (included here) as well as positive and negative punishment (excluded from this book). Effective training integrates all four approaches.

this dvd was ok, but i didn’t really show too much of anything. each part for training a specific command was pretty short and basic, and didn’t give too many pointers, etc.

This is the biggest waste of time I have ever spent money on. The training is very poor, accomplishes nothing. I actually threw it in the trash. A real waste of time, money and effort.

Even if it works…these people are annoying. I am all about positive training but I’m surprised I made it throught the whole video.
BUT…it was informative and useful.

This video left much to be desired. The dvd was cheaply made. I urge you NOT to buy this video!! This is $20 thrown out the window. This video was filmed in someones house. I would never buy this if I knew!!!
