All Dogs are from Missouri (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781662468643)

All Dogs Are from Missouri: Basic Obedience, the "Show Me" Way is an expansion from the basic obedience section of Steve's first book, From Sit to Gundog. He wanted to write a book for all the loving canine companion we call the family dog and their wonderful human companions. And guess what? Steve has done just that! Steve shares his knowledge and training expertise throughout his book and addresses, virtually, every key step of dog ownership, basic discipline, and the "how to" of training, which will turn your dog into a well-behaved canine citizen.

The book is informative and fun to read and weaves a masterfully descriptive narrative with an attractive collection of corresponding illustrations and photographs. Anyone who loves dogs, and would love to train their next companion, will appreciate the concepts and methods Steve has used on his own dogs and every dog that comes through Dogs of the Feather. Beside every well-trained dog is a very happy human companion.

This book will give you the ability to not only train your dog but create a bond that can only flourish with time. Steve has always said that all dogs are from Missouri, the "show me" state. You show them what you want them to do, show them how to do it, make sure they understand it, and once you know they understand it, you reinforce that behavior. If you asked Steve about dog training, he would tell you that, "dog training is not rocket science, it's an art." Be an artist and paint the picture, the "show me way."
