A Better Way to Better Behavior
Karen Pryor's clear and entertaining explanation of behavioral training methods made Don't Shoot the Dog! a bestselling classic. Now this revised edition presents more of her insights into animal—and human—behavior.
A groundbreaking behavioral scientist and dynamic animal trainer, Karen Pryor is a powerful proponent of the principles and practical uses of positive reinforcement in teaching new behaviors. Here are the secrets of changing behavior in pets, kids—even yourself—without yelling, threats, force, punishment, guilt trips...or shooting the dog:
•The principles of the revolutionary "clicker training" method, which owes its phenomenal success to its immediacy of response—so there is no question what action you are rewarding
•8 methods of ending undesirable habits—from furniture-clawing cats to sloppy roommates
•The 10 laws of "shaping" behavior–for results without strain or pain through "affection training"
•Tips for house-training the dog, improving your tennis game, or dealing with an impossible teen
•Explorations of exciting new uses for reinforcement training
Learn why pet owners rave, "This book changed our lives!" and how these pioneering techniques can work for you too.

Don't Shoot the Dog
This is an EXCELLENT book!!! The title is Don't Shoot the Dog and upon reading it you'll understand why, but the book covers shaping behavior on ANY animal, four legged or two! A BIG thumb's up for this one!!!!!!!!!

Don't shoot the dog
Don't Shoot The Dog makes you think that this book is based on dogs...but in fact it is based on human relationships and Dolphin training as well. It's the best book I have ever read on positive reinforcement training. Maybe not the easiest read but so educational. As a dog trainer I apply this to my own training and even human relationships.
There is no force used in this method of training and can be used on almost anything and anyone. From kids to birds.
This is a must read for anyone serious about training their dogs and having better relationships with the people around them. To understand training this is the book to read.

Training your Dog
She knows her stuff. I would recommend this book for all dog trainers and serious dog owners who wants their dog trained.

Wishing for more concrete dog training ideas
I bought Ms. Pryor's book on the recommendation of a friend who has been reading Ms. Pryor's work. I was looking to get ideas from Ms. Pryor on how to address common problems with dogs--such as walking freely at my side,and to stop barking at the sound of doorbells. Among her books, I chose this one because it had the word "dog," in it and I was expecting most of the book to provide examples and experiences with dogs but that was not the case. I was aware that Ms. Pryor had trained dolphins, nevertheless, I thought her focus would be on dogs. The book offers a variety of behavioral training approaches but most are explained in the context of dolphins she trained, human behaviors we try to change in our relationships and in some rare instances, dog behavior. To put it bluntly, I've been disappointed with the book. I'm in the last chapter and am straining to get it finished.
