Review

"Life will be better for readers who heed Bjelland's advice. The strength of this book is the practical, user-friendly motivation it provides for owners, to shape both human and dog behaviors."--Library Journal
 
"Explicit, positive advice on tackling any problem you may have with your dog. Bjelland tells you how to change your communication with your dog so that you will have 'stress-free, unconditional love for years to come.' She also has a web site so you can contact her, and donates a portion of her profits to help dogs. This is a must- read book that can help your dog as well as other deserving canines."--The American Dog Magazine
 
"This is NOT just another dog-training book. Believe me, I've read them all. Julie Bjelland's book is one of the best, right up there with the Monks of New Skete, The Culture Clash and How Dogs Think. ...Her approach is simple. The steps she lays out make perfect sense. I found myself having several "Ah Ha" moments. Her background as a vet-tech and a trainer for Guide Dogs for the Blind has given her opportunities to observe both ends of the leash. She understands that a successful harmonious relationship between guardian and dog begins with human behavior...This is a great book for every dog owner, whether you're a newbie or you've had dogs for years...it's a guide for achievable and purposeful goals."--Pet Guardians of America

Book Description

A comprehensive dog training and puppy training program that offers the added benefit of one-on-one online advice from the author
 
Do you consider your dog part of the family? Most dog guardians do. But just like children, dogs need structure. Structure to show him that he shouldn’t jump on every person who enters your house, or urinate indoors, or drag you down the road when you walk him. In Imagine Life with a Well-Behaved Dog, Julie Bjelland offers all the information you need to make your dog confident, secure and able to understand and follow rules. Drawing on years of experience, Julie has created a thorough guide that teaches basic training, how to communicate with your dog, and how to prevent and solve behavior problems. She discusses how to train your puppy and how to train adult dogs, even special needs dogs, and tells how to choose the right dog for your family and how to integrate him into a home with kids, other dogs, or cats.

Because each dog’s situation is unique, Julie is offering readers exclusive one-on-one guidance via her website, for up to 60 days. Here dog training, often very expensive, is now affordable and accessible to a broad audience.  Julie’s down-to-earth, uncomplicated advice is a welcome solution for a busy dog guardian and aims to change the way people communicate with, and care for, their dogs forever.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for everyone who has a dog - or wants to just learn how to be a better person too!, May 20 2011
This review is from: Imagine Life with a Well-Behaved Dog: A 3-Step Positive Dog-Training Program (Paperback)
Julie's book is a wonderful and very easy-to-read guide about how to have the best relationship with yours - or any - dog. I think if everyone would follow some of these steps (as in chapter 5 "Having trouble?") even people who don't have dogs could use these skills with each other and learn how to have better relationships - just think about how much being clear, positive, focused and aware of another's needs will help in any situation! We can always benefit from being reminded about simple things that sometimes we forget when things get over-complicated, as it often does in the world today, and this book is a very handy tool that will help anyone who reads it.

"Imagine Life with a Well-Behaved Dog" should come with every dog - like the car manual that comes with your car. It's so helpful to know the right techniques and use them when dealing with dogs - and ourselves and each other too! :) I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to have a well-trained dog, wants to have better relationships with dogs and others in general - even those without dogs can get something from this. It's always good to have this basic knowledge, as most of us at least know someone who has a dog. After reading this book you will know how to have more confidence in relating to them, which is always good.

5.0 out of 5 stars A perfect book for every dog owner., May 16 2011

This review is from: Imagine Life with a Well-Behaved Dog: A 3-Step Positive Dog-Training Program (Paperback)
This book is perfect for the average dog owner who wants an easy to read, easy to understand book that will help them have that "well-behaved dog" or for the person who wants to learn more advanced training. After reading this book, I almost felt like I could train any dog! It has good step-by-step instruction that makes sense. The author's approach is kind and gentle, but firm as well. You will get great results if you follow her instruction. This is a book every dog owner should own. From just the family pet to a more advanced obedience training, it has it all. You will not regret owning this book. And, the author's offer to answer questions on her website, gives you even more personalized help. You will love it! I think it is so good, I plan to give it to my friends, who own dogs, as a gift.
