| Good books for training? I've taught Chloe about 10 tricks so far, but sometimes I feel she can't understand some tricks, such as push or fetch. I can't get her to run after the ball.. or push it either lol. Are there any good books for training that explain how to do tricks?

| Ummm the only book I can think of 101 Dog Tricks by Kyra Sundance. I've had better luck with YouTube trainers vs. books, but I'm more of a visual person.

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | I like the 101 dog tricks book Brit suggested. Not all 101 worked for Yorkies, but I like the way the book is set up. It gives a couple different ways to teach each trick in case the first way doesn't work with your dog. Youtube is also good. My advice is to think of each trick in segments. Teach part of it. Sessions should be no longer than 15 minutes, 2-3 times a day. Always quit each session on a success, even if it means backing up and doing something she already knows. Reward for every success at first. Good luck!
