Anyone who lives with and loves dogs knows that they are smart. Really smart. They understand our body language and emotions, can be trained to perform important services, are devoted companions, and enjoy walks, tricks, dog sports or just hangin’ out on the couch. So, how “Dog Smart” are you? What do you know or wish to know about the dog’s history, perceptions, understanding of humans, and responses to different training methods? These topics and more come under the scrutiny of the Science Dog in Linda Case’s latest myth-busting book. Learn to separate fact from fiction about the relationship between dogs and wolves, whether dominance should be a factor in dog training, what forms of reinforcement work best, and how to apply evidence-based training methods. “Dog Smart” will not only help you to be a better trainer, but will give you the tools for communicating the most current information about dogs to others - including the popular Science Dog character, neighbor Joe (who happens to know a lot about dogs).

At this time of writing, The Audiobook Dog Smart: Evidence-based Training with The Science Dog has garnered 9 customer reviews with rating of 5 out of 5 stars. Not a bad score at all as if you round it off, it’s actually a perfect TEN already. From the looks of that rating, we can say the Audiobook is Good TO READ!

With Dog Smart, author Linda Case has given the dog training world the book it has been waiting for. She has melded together hands-on training advice that has value for the pure beginner through the professional, the science that backs the methods she describes, and talking points to persuade the neighborhood skeptic.As if that weren’t enough, she shows how she has applied the principles herself, generously including the curricula for the classes she teaches at her own dog training center, AutumnGold.Linda’s style is readable and persuasive. She provides a unique blend of conversational explanations and strong science, with an “Evidence” section of peer-reviewed articles at the end of each chapter.Those familiar with Linda’s writing know that she typically takes a companion animal issue or controversy and walks the reader through pertinent scientific literature about it. She is expert at translating academic research papers for the non-specialist audience. But now she has given us a whole book, one that is desperately needed, that covers all the crucial aspects of training using classical conditioning and positive reinforcement.She teaches us the concepts, the timing, and the mechanics. But she also advises us how to navigate the waters of cultural assumptions, our own upbringing, our know-it-all neighbor, and most important, cognitive biases.The writing style is casual and pleasant, while still being precise. She jokes around. The book is well organized, persuasive, thorough, and above all, practical.Her knowledge of the scientific literature is staggering. Who else but Linda would include an explanation of the well-established research that indicates you will probably like and enjoy your dog more if you train using positive reinforcement? (It’s also well established that your dog will like you more!)Linda never loses sight of the fact that professional “dog trainers” are actually training people—the dogs’ owners—for a large percentage of the time. Her suggestions are eminently practical; her methods are easy to remember. She makes good use of mnemonics and sticky phrases to make the processes clear and memorable.And don’t think that the lighthearted sections about Joe, the neighbor who “knows a lot about dogs,” are just for laughs. At the end of each chapter, she gives talking points to respond to the inevitable misconceptions about positive reinforcement training and about dogs in general, addressed to the know-it-all neighbor. We all know this guy, right? But of course, these talking points are not just for “Joe.” Most of us still have a little Joe repeating dog mythology inside our heads. But now we can have Linda in our heads as well, calmly giving us good advice in that practical voice, and citing sources in case we need to convince the “Joes” of the world.Four paws and two thumbs up!
