Teamwork Service Dog Training BooksWonderful Manuals..Choose from 2 Levels
The Teamwork training book series is unique. Both books give the reader wonderful insight into dog behavior and understanding. They are well written, easy to read and easy to follow. Relying on years of experience, both personal and professional, Nordensson and Kelley explain clearly and concisely the best ways to approach each exercise and each problem, and offer as many solutions as possible.  TEAMWORK concentrates on understanding your dog and learning to teach basic obedience exercises, such as sit, down, come and heel. Each exercise is explained clearly, step by step, and includes tips for people on crutches, in manual wheelchairs or power chairs. Praise and food reward are explained and emphasized. Equipment is discussed so that the novice trainer will have a better idea of what's available.  TEAMWORK II builds on this foundation. For the serious student who wants his or her dog to be more than a companion and friend, service exercises are explained and taught. This is done primarily through true case histories of how people with various disabilities have taught their own dogs these helpful exercises. Picking things up-anything from a dime to a crutch-is one of the most useful ways in which your dog may be of help. Retrieving your shoes, phone or wheelchair may be very valuable. Turning lights on and off, opening doors, helping you up from the floor or a chair, helping you dress--all of these skills, and more, are explained in detail in Teamwork II.  The hope is that more and more people with disabilities will realize that they can share the companionship and joy of owning a dog, and with a little work and dedication, they can learn how to make that dog a better behaved friend and companion. They don't have to rely on someone else to do it for them; they don't have to forego the pleasure of canine company. It is all within their grasp. The end result of Teamwork is TEAM-a person and dog who understand one another and bond strongly together. Both books are liberally illustrated with color photographs showing people with many different disabilities training their own dogs. No matter your level of disability, no matter what breed of dog you own, the Teamwork books can help you learn to understand and train your dog, taking that training just as far as you want. Choose from Teamwork manual book 1 or Teamwork manual book 2. |
