Most of us see dogs as part of our family and love nearly everything about them. However, there are always going to be behaviors from our dogs that we might want to change. This book outlines simple, effective ways to change your dog's behavior that do not fall under conventional training recommendations.
Known as management, these solutions focus on preventing unwanted behaviors from occurring, leading to a more harmonious life with your dog. Each chapter dives into a different behavior issue that dog guardians commonly face, including:
• Getting into the trash
• Dashing out doors
• Jumping on guests
• Barking
• Pulling on leash
• Counter-surfing
• And more...
Management can give a family immediate relief from the challenging behavior they are experiencing from their dog and allow for progress to be built from there. Sometimes, implementing management prevents dog training services from being needed at all. While some dog training books touch on the concept of management, there is no other book that focuses as much on using this powerful technique as this one does.
In this book, you will gain an understanding of what management is and how to use it, as well as learn about dog behavior and the science of learning. Ultimately, Manage It! is about supporting and enriching the human-canine bond through behavior-change solutions that work for both ends of the leash.
What reviewers are saying...
Finally! A much-needed book about what every professional trainer knows: The management of a behavioral problem can be just as important as training, and often more practical. Kudos to DeWillems for giving us this essential book!

This book speaks with clarity to the average pet guardian, but it's a great resource for the professional trainer as well. It will be a welcome addition to any dog lover's library.
Ken Ramirez, Executive Vice President and Chief Training Owner of Karen Pryor Clicker Training, author of Animal Training
Management is the cornerstone of preventing behavior problems, and it is also the first step to changing emotions about particular triggers or modifying concerning behavior. This book takes a practical look at management hacks that owners can implement TODAY with their pups. There is just a wealth of information, pictures, and experience from a trusted behavior consultant here - I can't wait to share this book with my clients!
Amy L. Pike, DVM, DACVB, CDBC, Veterinary Behaviorist, owner of Animal Behavior Wellness Center
Finally, a book that concisely and compassionately communicates the power of small environmental changes to improve our dogs' behaviors. In it, you'll find dozens of actionable tips to create a happier home & to further any training plan. What a relief!

I am a huge fan of management for unwanted dog behaviors and strongly agree with author Juliana DeWillems that management isn't given enough credit in the canine behavior and training world. This book is a delightful blend of science-based and useful information presented in a well-written, easily accessible style, jam-packed with great management solutions that any dedicated dog guardian will be able to understand and implement with reasonable ease. A great addition to any dog-lover's bookshelf!
