"Victoria Stilwell is one of the world's most recognized and respected dog trainers, known as much for her spunky attitude as for her caring, effective methods. Including easy-to-follow instructions and color photos that help dog owners not merely train their pets, but understand them, 'IT'S ME OR THE DOG' reminds owners that training isn't about imposing their will on a dog: it's about giving him the tools he needs to live in a human world. Topics include: How to house-train your puppy ; How much exercise does your breed need? ; Why you have to be "top dog" in your home ; How to stop your dog from nipping and biting ; What to do when your dog barks all day, annoying the neighbors ; How to keep your pet from jumping on guests --and much more"--Page 4 of cover.
