Product Details

Product Description

Product Description

These cheerful canines have been trained as hunters since the dawn of history, but they also make affectionate house pets. Here's everything the neophyte owner needs to know about the Beagle and its traits. Training Your Dog books teach ordinary non-expert dog owners how to train their own pets. Virtually every aspect of training is covered, with special focus on the distinctive traits of individual breeds. Dog owners are instructed on humane but effective methods of housebreaking and paper training, obedience training, teaching the dog to respond to verbal commands and hand signals, walking on a leash, and more. Also covered are methods of correcting bad habits such as begging, unwanted barking, and showing hostile behavior. There are many instructive, full-color photos in each book.


From the Author

Training your Beagle to behave appropriately is a fundamental part of responsible dog ownership. In this new book, the author presents a positive training program through which your beagle will learn acceptable manners and behavior, making him a more welcome member of the family. The author's training methods are tailored specifically to the distinctive breed characteristics of the often "independent minded", but lovable beagle.

Included are chapters on selecting your new beagle companion, breed history, and everything from basic manners training through participation in advanced activities (such as conformation shows, competitive obedience, agility, hunting and field trials, therapy dog work and more).

3.0 out of 5 stars A decent book on Beagle ownership, Feb 3 2003
By C. K. Ogi (NW MO USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I purchased this book and Rice's 'A Beagle Handbook'when I decided to adopt to beagle puppies. I have owned beagles before so am familliar with their behavior. This book was recommended.

While I found the information in this book to be accurate, it didn't seem particularly 'user friendly.' I found the information too encylopeadic and scholarly. It did have good and accurate information, but it just was a little more complex than necessary.

If you are considering a beagle or want a book on Beagle ownership, skip this and get 'A Beagle Handbook.' Information is the same, but a far superior book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for the Dog Newbie, Feb 16 2003
By Amy R. Nix "Aspen74 - just another bibliophile" (California, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
My husband and I are considering several breeds, but we come back to the Beagle every time. Having never raised a dog on our own before, this book gave us a lot of things to think about that would never have occurred to us naturally.

Unlike generalized books on training a new dog or puppy, this breed-specific approach appeals because - obviously - it addresses the temperament of the individual breed. Beagles, like a lot of hounds, can be tricky because of their intelligence, their strong pack instincts, and their scent-hound tendency to roam off on a scent trail. All of these things come to play during the training of a new Beagle, and a this book gives the prospective owner a much more complete picture than any general training book could.

This book is also appealing because of its organized layout, clear language, and - to be honest - the GREAT pictures. It isn't written with a story-telling approach. It doesn't follow someone through the training of their own puppy or share funny anecdotes about someone's beloved family animal. Those books DO have their place, but this book was much more informational in its approach...and that's exactly what we were looking for.

We found this little guide to be a great introduction to the reality of training a Beagle, and I'm sure it will be an indispensible tool that we return to again and again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just Right, Nov 15 2001
By Alfonso Garza V (Monterrey, Mexico) - See all my reviews
Easy to read, right to the point, I've just got my beautiful 7 week old female Beagle "Laika", and if it wasn't for this book she would already be completely spoiled. A must have if you are a unexperienced Beagle owner, or are thinking on getting one.

Thank you Kristine

Alfonso
