I've *NEVER* been able to train any of my dogs to come to me when I've called them. It is frustrating, aggravating and unsafe for the dog.I have looked at different dog training books and courses in the past but they were very comprehensive, covering a broad range of training and obedience topics requiring more time, effort and energy than I had. I'm not a dog breeder and I don't show my dog in competitions. I just want my dog to follow a couple basic commands, not do 150 different tricks.I recently discovered a little gem titled; "Teach Your Dog to Come When You Call Him" written by Katie Buvala. Unlike virtually every other dog training book I have looked at, this clearly written, easy to understand book takes you by the hand and leads you step-by-step through the entire process of doing just one thing... teaching your dog to come when you call him. The author focuses on teaching you how to train your dog to do one thing, and no more. This is exactly the type of dog training material I've been waiting for.This book was enjoyable, easy to understand and the author's method will produce outstanding results. Highly recommended.
