Overview

Do you have an impossible dog? Think again. Most dogs have many characteristics that make them quiet trainable. Your dog is smart, a good problem solver and posesses a strong drive to get what he wants. Learn how to make your dog operant; a dog willing to seek out the correct behavior in return for a reward. You don't have to constantly feed your dog for good behavior. Learn how to use play and other activities as an effective reward.

With the "Pigs Fly" Training System you will:
* Discover how dogs learn
* Learn to use the clicker
* Get your dog to offer to do things without being asked
* Learn how to use shaping
* Reinforcers - find out what gets your dog really excited
* Get your dog to pay attention to you
* How to play with your dog
* How to teach your dog behaviors

The key to training success with difficult dogs is to figure out what they find rewarding and then to use those rewards to get the behaviors you want. You'll be amazed at what your "bad" dog will do when you know how he thinks and what turns him on!
