I’m a huge fan of clicker training. To me, dog training should be a fun, positive experience for both the handler and the dog. I’ve trained all three of mine with the clicker, and they’ve learned everything from the basic “sit” all the way to flipping light switches and opening and closing cabinets. So when I had the opportunity to work with a trainer to write a book about clicker training, I could not have been more excited.
And, as of yesterday, the interactive book is available in the iTunes app store. This week only it’s on sale for only $4.99. It’s a steal!
Some details about the “Positively Dog Training” app: Made exclusively for the iPad and iPhone, this book uses clicker training to help readers train their dogs quickly and humanely. It features 38 HD video tutorials and dozens of step-by-step instructions for canine skills and tricks, potty training, noise control, nutrition, and exercise. Readers can also consult a quick-reference glossary and a buying guide full of the best in dog gear.
I’m so excited to share this project with you because it’s something I truly believe in. Training with our dogs is one of the most fun ways we can build our bond.
Check it out and let me know what you think!

03•02•14 at 6:53 amCould this ebook be a solution to my aggressive, noisy, jumpy and unmotivated spaniel terrier?. Are there some expert advice to help me? Tthis dog exhausts me, and I do not know what to do with it!
Maggie says
03•03•14 at 2:32 pmHi, Liana. I’m so sorry you’re struggling with your pup’s behavior! I think that there could be a lot of great ideas for you in the ebook for sure! Any positive training – from basic obedience to fun stuff like tricks – will help exercise your pup’s mind and help tire him out!! Also be sure he’s getting plenty of physical exercise (running, hiking, playing fetch, etc.).
