Description
A chance to give the priceless blessing of a well-behaved dog! Train that unruly pup to perform tricks, behave impeccably, and become a charming member of the family.
The best way to keep your dog happy and well-behaved is to give it challenging things to think about or do. School for Dogs presents fifty ingenious ideas for tricks, training, and doggy happiness. You'll learn how to introduce new games and toys into the day; how to keep your dog lively and friendly; and how to address occasional behaviour problems before they become serious.
Each concept features one simple piece of Sophie Collins' expert advice, paired with a winning illustration from the pen of Charlotte Farmer. Topics include 'Swapping not Snatching', 'Slow Walking', 'Bake Tray Treasure Hunt', and more. Whether you're teaching your dog something useful or just having more fun with it, the format makes it easy to pick up a new idea and quickly introduce it to your pooch.
