For lifelong free dog training, learn Dialogue® so you’ll know not only how to train your dog, but puppy training as well!

People all over the world are successfully learning to develop Dialogue® with their dogs. Dialogue® is highly effective two-way communication between a dog and her human partner. Dialogue® removes the primary obstacle to good dog behavior—dog anxiety. Dialogue® gives your dog the confidence, security and peace of mind she needs to be able to respond appropriately to you. From the study materials found on this website you will learn
1) a new way of thinking about dog behavior and about how to train your dog and
2) a structure of exercises (Sit, Down, Stand, Stay, Come, Heel) that you will practice for only minutes each day with your dog.

You will train your dog to do the exercises only after you have trained yourself! It takes time, commitment and perseverance, but then you will have become the dog trainer. You will have free dog training for all the dogs that come into your life for the rest of your life! And in Dialogue®, everything applies to puppy training as well.

You must understand that if you were to train with me in my typical two-day training clinic, I would spend on average no more than 15 minutes of that two days teaching your dog everything she needs to know to start practicing with you. The rest of the time is spent teaching you how to train your dog through Dialogue®!

So expect to begin by studying the book Dogs Deserve Dialogue, watching and rewatching the DVD “Right Solution Dog Training,” and practicing each procedure by yourself a lot...for days...before even trying to apply what you're learning to your dog.

Read and watch everything through once. Then go back and break it down section by section--i.e., Chapter 5 in the book and then the first section of the student training sessions on the DVD up to the "Do's and Don't's" for that section. Then on to Chapter 6 and the next section on the DVD, and so on.  Study and scrutinize and then mimic what you've seen and heard me do on the DVD. With me, any dog learns very quickly. So the more closely you emulate what I do with a dog, the greater will be your success. You can also utilize the DVD’s “Initiating Dialogue: The Foundation,”  and “HEEL With Dialogue®,” to help you get going.

Once you are prepared to include your dog in your practice, you’ll initiate Dialogue® with your dog. That first activity will be the substance of your first practice sessions, a few minutes at a time. After that, you’ll add the exercises one at a time, allowing for at least a few days of practice on each new one before adding another. Your daily practice sessions should cover all of your growing number of exercises without exceeding 10 to 15 minutes in duration.

Your dog should never even be aware that you had a learning curve!  Don’t practice anything with your dog until you are able to make your dog feel better about herself and her life in this world because she practiced with you.

You will use the book and DVD together as a step-by-step guide to the great relationship with your dog you may never have thought possible.
