Hi {{first_name}},

Dan Stevens, a professional dog trainer, tells a short story about a dog called Major.

Major is out in the garden digging up a bed of newly planted daisies. His owner quietly calls, "Major, come here," and Major keeps digging. The owner shouts it, and Major still doesn't come, so the owner marches over, grabs him by the collar, says "I told you to come here!" and gives him a smack.

Major is a smart dog. He makes a mental note that "come here" means he's in trouble and about to be punished.

The next time he's outside and his owner calls him in for dinner, Major runs the other way.

Dan's rule is never to use your recall word to tell your dog off, or for anything unpleasant at all. A bad deed has to be caught while it's happening if you want to correct it. If you need your dog beside you for something he won't enjoy, give him a firm "sit" and go to him instead, so that "come" only ever means good things.

Hi {{first_name}},

One piece of house training advice still gets passed around: when a puppy has an accident indoors, rub his nose in it so he learns.

Dan Stevens, a professional dog trainer and the author of Secrets to Dog Training, says it doesn't work. The puppy most likely has no idea what you're trying to tell him. He gets frustrated, and that frustration stunts his learning, so house training ends up taking longer.

Dan's answer is to reward the dog every time he goes in the right place. As Dan says, reward sounds like a lot more fun than punishment, and it gives the puppy something to aim for.

Beverley in Great Britain described what she found in the book: "Here was a simple, effective method that really worked without any cruelty or punishments."

Hi {{first_name}},

We've mentioned Dan Stevens' book a couple of times this week, so here are the plain facts in one place.

Secrets to Dog Training is a 256-page eBook with photos and step-by-step instructions for over 25 behavior problems, from jumping up and chewing to house training and bolting out the front door. It suits puppies and adult dogs of any breed.

It comes with a 30-minute video, the audio book, the Secrets to Becoming the Alpha Dog eBook and four bonus eBooks. You also get unlimited consultations with Dan and the Secrets to Dog Training team in the members' forum.

It costs $39.95, paid once, and you get access straight away. If it isn't right for you, there's a 60-day money-back guarantee.

The one thing it can't do is the training itself. Victoria in England was frank about that in her review: "it is hard work. But if the people stick to the explanations given it is very worth it in the end."

Hi {{first_name}},

Jen loved her German Shepherd, Aladdin, and gave him the best of everything a dog could want. He still jumped on every visitor and barked through the day until the neighbors threatened to call the pound. Then one night, out on a walk, he bit a young college girl.

The girl was on a sports scholarship. Jen was ordered to pay a full year of her tuition and board, so she sold her car and spent the money she'd been saving for a holiday in Europe.

Their uncle had a simple explanation: "You're either born the type of person a dog will answer to, or you aren't."

Jen's brother disagreed, and he was in a good position to know. He's Dan Stevens, a professional dog trainer and the person dog owners come to for advice.

When Jen read Dan's book, she found she'd been training Aladdin the wrong way all along. Much of the "common knowledge" she'd been handed was teaching him the opposite of what she wanted. Today Aladdin sits, rolls over, fetches the newspaper and enjoys other dogs. He's a pleasure to be around.

That book is Secrets to Dog Training. Dan wrote it so ordinary owners can use the methods professional trainers rely on every day, laid out step by step for over 25 behavior problems, from barking and jumping up to house training and aggression. Over 220,000 dog owners have used it.

Hello {{first_name}},

Dan Stevens is a professional dog trainer, and he's used to people relying on his advice. So it's worth hearing what he thinks most dog obedience courses get wrong.

In Dan's view, most of them rely on punishing a dog whenever he doesn't listen, or on weeks of doing almost the same thing over and over. What they leave out is the most important part of teaching a dog anything new, which is making sure he understands what you're asking him to do. As Dan puts it, dogs only know dog language when they come to live with us, so it's up to us to teach them ours.

That's what his book, Secrets to Dog Training, is built around. It puts the secrets that top trainers use daily into ordinary owners' hands, step by step, across over 25 behavior problems, and Dan says most members use it to solve a specific problem with their own dog.

Carla in Long Beach, California, rescued two German Shepherds and wrote: "What I like about your book is that you give insights into what the dog is thinking, why they behave the way they do, and tips on what to do to correct the problem."

Hi {{first_name}},

When Dan Stevens' sister Jen was having a terrible time with her German Shepherd, Aladdin, their uncle just nodded and said, "You're either born the type of person a dog will answer to, or you aren't."

Plenty of people would agree with him. Dan, who trains dogs for a living, says the uncle was wrong. In Dan's experience, effective training doesn't come naturally to most people, and every owner, even a lifelong dog lover, has to learn a whole bunch of new skills.

Some of the reviews on Dan's order page come from people who felt well out of their depth at the start. Audrey in North Carolina adopted a six-week-old lab mix from a shelter and wrote, "Once I got SoCo home, I realized that I may have gotten in over my head." Kerranne in Maryland, USA, put it this way: "I'm a first time dog owner but my husband isn't and I have learned a tremendous amount from purchasing your book."

Hi {{first_name}},

Dog trainer Dan Stevens says this tip usually takes owners a little aback. Your posture and eye contact really matter to dogs, and facial expression is as important to them as it is to people.

Renee in Maryland found that shouting commands at her Papillon, Lord Byron, often backfired. After reading the section on dog whispering in Dan's book, she started using a more controlled voice, and he responds much better to it. She began watching him more closely too: "I've also started to pay more attention to the position of Lord Byron's ears, how his eyes look, and how he's holding his mouth to really give me insight into how he's feeling."

Secrets to Dog Training has a whole chapter on understanding your dog, covering dog senses, scent, body language and facial expressions, and then it puts that knowledge to work on over 25 behavior problems.

Dan Stevens, a professional dog trainer, makes a bold claim about leash pulling. He says his technique stops it in ten minutes or less.

The technique is in his book, Secrets to Dog Training, and the 30-minute video that comes with the book shows how to stop pulling on the leash, so you can watch it being done before trying it on your own walks.

Ben in Florida noticed that the person holding the leash matters as well: "I try to talk a softer tone and don't yank on the leash as hard anymore and get better results."

Hello {{first_name}},

Tahara in the USA had a houseguest with four legs. Her mother's dog Molly, a four-year-old brown lab, came to stay for a week, and Tahara's own dog Bernie is a one-year-old beagle with energy to spare.

Molly was happy enough at first, but after a while she'd had enough of Bernie and started trying to show her dominance. Tahara feared she'd have to keep them apart for the whole week.

She wrote to the Secrets to Dog Training team, and the advice was to treat Molly as the dominant dog, even though it was Bernie's house. In Tahara's words: "By greeting Molly first and feeding her first, both dogs would get the hint. And it's been working!"

Dan Stevens, the professional dog trainer behind the book, covers two dogs in the house and dogs who chase cats, and he includes his Top Dog Maintenance Program for keeping the peace.

Hi {{first_name}},

Dan Stevens is a professional dog trainer himself, and he once did the sums on what hiring one costs. He put trainers at $50 an hour or more, and said they usually need at least eight sessions with you and your dog. That comes to $400 or more.

Laura in New York has four dogs, and each one has a different problem. "Hiring a trainer would have been too expensive, $100 a session is a price we were given," she wrote. Her family looks up each dog's problem in Dan's book and works on it from there.

Secrets to Dog Training costs $39.95, paid once. It takes over 25 behavior problems step by step, and it includes unlimited consultations with Dan and the Secrets to Dog Training team in the members' forum for anything the book doesn't answer.

Dan is fair to trainers, too. He points out that even if you do hire one, you still need a good reference for the days they aren't around.

Hi {{first_name}},

A lot of puppies join their families over Christmas and New Year, and the first weeks are busy ones.

Dan Stevens, a professional dog trainer, makes a point early in his book that's worth knowing from the first day. A dog is always learning, even when you don't think you're training him, and it's easy to make a problem worse without meaning to.

One habit from the book's Alpha Dog lessons that customers mention is asking the puppy to sit before the food bowl goes down. It's a small thing, and it shows him early on who runs the house.

John and Jackie in Redcar, UK, were first-time owners. They wrote this about nights and mornings with their dog Cassie: "we now get a full nights sleep (no crying & barking in the wee small hours), and every morning we come downstairs to a clean floor with no accidents to mop up."

Hi {{first_name}},

Longer days mean longer walks, and a lot more for a dog to chase.

Dan Stevens, a professional dog trainer, has a rule worth remembering on summer walks: never give your dog a command you can't back up straight away.

His example is calling "come" while your dog is far off, playing with another dog or chasing squirrels. If he doesn't respond, there's nothing you can do about it on the spot, so in effect you're teaching him to ignore the command. Dan doesn't accept that shouting hopelessly across the road is simply part of owning a dog.

Jahn in New York had a different challenge. Max is "seventy-five pounds of pure energy and exuberance!" and was a real handful on a leash. After following the book, Jahn wrote that Max now stops on command and keeps pace on long walks and jogs in the park: "I consider him my exercise machine with fur."

Hi {{first_name}},

When school starts again, a dog's whole day can change. Mornings get busy, and then the house goes quiet for hours. The same is true of any big change at home, like a new job or a move.

Dan Stevens, a professional dog trainer, puts a lot of weight on consistency. In his book, a dog who sees you as a strong, steady leader is less likely to challenge you. That's harder to manage when everyone in the family does things differently.

Gisela, who lives with her family in Australia, bought Secrets to Dog Training before their labradoodle puppy Jem arrived. She had her sons read it too, "so each one of us knows how to become an “alpha dog” and how to issue commands consistently."

If a dog starts chewing things or barking once the house is quiet, the book has step-by-step sections on both, among over 25 behavior problems.

Hello {{first_name}},

If the dog is on your list of New Year plans, Neil and Marion in the UK have a good model to borrow.

They adopted Henry, a two-and-a-half-year-old Golden Cocker Spaniel, through a rescue. They called him a smashing dog, but he came with a few faults, including jumping up at everybody and pulling on the leash. Neither of them had much experience of handling dogs, so they bought Dan Stevens' book to understand why Henry behaved the way he did.

Then they worked through his habits one by one. In their words: "Taking one issue at a time and with the tremendous help from the book, we have converted Henry from the lovable dog with his little faults to an extremely well behaved and social dog that everybody loves."

It's an easy plan to copy. Choose the habit that bothers your household most and read that section of Secrets to Dog Training first, then move on to the next once it's settled. The book suits this well, because it takes over 25 behavior problems one at a time, each with step-by-step instructions and case studies.

A quick reminder that my bonus for Secrets to Dog Training still stands for anyone who orders through my link.

While I'm here, one line from Anna in New York is worth passing on. She'd trained a dog 15 years earlier but had forgotten everything by the time her new puppy arrived, so she turned to Dan Stevens' book. This is how she described his recall: "anytime I call my puppy to come, he rans as fast as he can, because he knows that he will get a lot of love for coming to me!!!"

That matches one of Dan's firmest rules. Never call your dog to you to scold him or for anything he won't enjoy, or he'll learn that the recall word means trouble. When coming to you always ends in something good, he has every reason to run.

A dog from a shelter or rescue often arrives with a history nobody fully knows, and some habits only show once he settles in.

Rosie in Italy took on Marty, a large dog who had been abandoned as a puppy. "I did not know how to cope with his erratic behaviour," she wrote. She went on to call Dan Stevens' Secrets to Dog Training her Bible.

I'll keep this one short, and there's a question for you at the end.

First, a story from Anke in Granada, Spain. She was a first-time dog owner when she found Leo, an abandoned puppy, and she started reading everything she could. When she reached the alpha dog section of Dan Stevens' Secrets to Dog Training, she wrote, "I cringed (and giggled) when I realised the mistakes I had been making".

Two of those mistakes were feeding Leo first to stop him begging and letting him go through doors ahead of her. To a dog, both of those say he's the one in charge. Anke changed her habits, and she says that part was easy.

I'd like to show you something that surprises almost every dog owner who sees it...

It's about one word most owners say a dozen times a day, while quietly teaching their dog to run away from it.

==> See it here

=> {{AFFILIATE_LINK}}

The word is "Come."

Picture a dog called Major digging up a bed of newly planted daisies. His owner calls, "Major, come here." Major keeps digging. So his owner yells it, marches over, grabs his collar and gives him a telling-off.

Major is a smart dog, and he makes a mental note: "Come" means trouble.

The next evening his dinner is ready, his owner calls "Come"... and Major bolts the other way.

His owner decides he has a dumb dog. The truth is that Major learned exactly what he was taught.

Professional dog trainer Dan Stevens shows owners how to turn that one word back into the best thing their dog ever hears. Anna from New York wrote to him: "Now anytime I call my puppy to come, he rans as fast as he can, because he knows that he will get a lot of love for coming to me"

It turns the most common house-training advice on its head, and it can save you a lot of mopping.

=> {{AFFILIATE_LINK}}

Most of us were told the same thing. When the puppy pees on the floor, rub his nose in it so he learns.

Dan Stevens says your dog probably doesn't even know you're trying to correct him. All he picks up is that you're upset. He gets frustrated, and his learning is actually stunted, which makes him even harder to train.

The fix is so simple it feels almost too easy: reward him for going in the right place, instead of punishing him for going in the wrong one.

John and Jackie from Redcar in the UK put Dan's methods to work and wrote: "we now get a full nights sleep (no crying & barking in the wee small hours), and every morning we come downstairs to a clean floor with no accidents to mop up."

I want to show you something that explains why so many dogs listen beautifully one day and ignore every word the next.

Dogs instinctively challenge the pack leader when they sense the leader is losing touch.

Follow this link to see what to do about it...

=> {{AFFILIATE_LINK}}

A dog who sees you as a calm, consistent leader feels safe and secure, and he's far less likely to challenge you. A dog who isn't sure who's in charge keeps testing you, at the door, on the leash and at the food bowl.

Professional dog trainer Dan Stevens teaches owners to become that leader without yelling or smacking.

One of his simplest habits is to ask for a sit before the food bowl goes down. Susan, who adopted a little Pug/Chihuahua cross known as "Jack The Nipper", wrote: "I had no idea that doing something as simple as making him sit before I put his bowl of food down would make a difference in how Jack viewed me."

Picture standing at the back door, calling his name once, and watching him come flying across the yard with his tail going.

Now picture the opposite, which happens to thousands of owners every day. He's across the park chasing a squirrel, you shout "Come!", and he carries on as if you don't exist.

Dan Stevens says calling a dog in that moment is doomed to failure. If you can't back the command up straight away, you're teaching him to ignore it. He has a better way, and it changes how your dog hears that word for good.

Hey there,

Did you know your dog is always learning, even when you think you're not training him?

Discover what he's learning here...

=> {{AFFILIATE_LINK}}

Professional dog trainer Dan Stevens puts it bluntly. Frequently, when owners are training their dog, or even when they think they're not, they're actually making behavior problems worse.

Every time a jump gets a cuddle, every time "Come" is followed by a telling-off, and every time a command is given and never followed through, the lesson sinks in a little deeper.

Dogs understand things very differently from us, and once you see the world through your dog's eyes, the bad habits start to make sense. So does the fix.

Dr. Stanley Hyman from Winnipeg tried it with his Bichon, Jasmine, who loved everyone and showed it by jumping up on them. He wrote: "By following the instructions in your Secrets to Dog Training book, we were able to control her jumping."

Hey there,

Have you heard of dog whispering?

It's a totally humane training technique, and when it's done right, a dog starts paying attention to a calm, quiet owner instead of a shouting one.

Most owners do the opposite. When a dog doesn't listen, the natural move is a louder voice and a firmer hand. The dog gets more wound up, the owner gets more frustrated, and the problem grows.

Dog whispering works with the way a dog already thinks, through calm signals he understands, for Come, Sit, Down, Heel, Stay and even Hush.

Professional dog trainer Dan Stevens gives it a whole section of his book, Secrets to Dog Training, alongside step-by-step fixes for over 25 behavior problems.

Dog trainers don't come cheap. Laura from New York has four dogs, each with a different problem. She wrote: "Hiring a trainer would have been too expensive, $100 a session is a price we were given."

And even with a trainer, you still need something to turn to when they're not around.

Professional dog trainer Dan Stevens wrote down the secrets that top trainers use every day, step by step, so ordinary owners can do it themselves. That's Secrets to Dog Training. Over 220,000 dog owners have used it, and it costs $39.95, once.

Laura again: "With the books I downloaded from Secrets to Dog Training, we are looking up each dog's problem and addressing it."

It comes with a 60-day money-back guarantee, so there's no risk in having a look...

Hey there,

I have a surprisingly useful email for you today.

It's about the moment most owners get wrong, the moment they find the damage.

Here's the complete method...

You come home to a chewed shoe, a hole in the garden or a puddle by the door. You call your dog over, point at the mess and tell him off.

Professional dog trainer Dan Stevens says bad deeds must be caught in the act to be corrected. An hour later, your dog has no idea what the telling-off is about. All he learns is that coming to you ends badly, so the next time you call, he's slower to come.

Dan's fix is simple. Correct only in the moment, and if you need him beside you for something he won't like, give a firm "Sit" and go to him, so "Come" stays a happy word.

Susan from Florida tried Dan's advice for her dog Kali's accidents in the house and wrote: "it broke Kali's habit of having accidents in the house immediately."

Ouch. I've just read a story that made me wince.

It ends with a German Shepherd fetching the newspaper, but it doesn't start that way. Here's the book that turned it around:

Jen loved her German Shepherd, Aladdin, and gave him the best of everything a dog could want.

He still jumped on every visitor and barked through the day, until the neighbors introduced themselves by threatening to call the pound.

Then one night, out on a walk, Aladdin bit a young college girl.

Lawyers got involved. The girl was on a sports scholarship, so Jen was ordered to pay a full year of her tuition and board. She sold her car and spent the money she'd saved for a holiday in Europe.

When their uncle heard, he just nodded and said: "You're either born the type of person a dog will answer to, or you aren't."

Jen's brother is professional dog trainer Dan Stevens, and he says their uncle was wrong. Everyone is a dog person, and any dog can be trained.

When Jen read Dan's book, she found she'd been training Aladdin the wrong way all along. Today Aladdin is a pleasure to be around. He sits, he rolls over and he even fetches the newspaper.

The book is Secrets to Dog Training...
