This book looks at the reasons for the problem, the more effective solutions and how to alter the behaviour.
Customer Reviews
Awful
The advice to condition disgust as a way to stop chasing is just that - disgusting. There is no reason to use positive punishment when training a dog. If the chasing behavior is really that bad there are ways you can manage it. You do not need to force lemon juice down their throats. Do not waste your money on this book. I wish I hadn't.
