About this listen

A compassionate, modern, science-based approach to help you (and your dog!) with common training problems

"Zak George takes his dedication to humane and effective dog training from the screen to the written page." (Dr. John Ciribassi, DVM, DACVB, coeditor of Decoding Your Dog)

Does your dog bark a lot, pull on the leash, hate to be left alone, or have accidents in the house?

Celebrity dog trainer and YouTube star Zak George creates the most watched dog-training content in the world and has helped millions of people with their dogs. In this problem-based guide, he makes it easy to solve the exact behavioral issue that you're struggling with - whether you’re dealing with a new puppy, an adult dog you’ve had for years, or a recently adopted rescue. He also helps you prevent many of these problems from becoming established in the first place. Packed with case studies and examples from Zak's videos so you can see his dog and puppy training tactics in action, this book contains step-by-step instructions for dealing with:

  • Chewing
  • Jumping up
  • Barking
  • Play biting
  • Begging
  • Not listening
  • Thunderstorm phobia
  • Separation anxiety
  • Aggression
  • And much more!

Delving deeply into why dogs do what they do and how to work through any problems that might arise, Zak proves that it's never too late to correct behavioral issues.

Great Book thou Time stamps would be great.

This book was great. The slow-talking and reasoning behind doing everything are great.
The only issue is there are no timestamps anywhere so I can't navigate to certain things I want without quickly skipping around the chapters. this would not be an issue with a hardback book, however, I don't know a hardback and only have the audible book.

Non-the less I love the book but have found my self quickly taking down timestamp times for certain things I want to readdress at a later date.

Zac is an inspiration.

Due to the current world pandemic I have had to stop group dog training with my 5 month old lab. Zac's books, videos, app and Facebook group have kept me going on the training department. Zac is truely a dog whisperer and, the lovely manner in which he explains dogs and their behaviours really gives the listener great insight into how to better communicate with their fur baby. Great job Zac! Thank you
