just like you can't write a book that teaches you everything there is to know about being a child's parent, it's the same with dogs, there is good info. lots of advice to try out, but there are many ways to do things and you have to find what works best for the dog you have!!

i'm learning so much that i have to learn how to train and teach her based on how she responds and not how i've been taught or advised to do it. it's all based on how well it works with her!

just thought i'd throw that out there, there is no magic words, just trial and error in finding the perfect thing to make the dog listen, learn, and respond.
I agree. In training especially I think there are different things that work for different dogs. I have learned something from every trainer I have read about or watched on tv. Its just finding what works with my dogs
