Most dog-training manuals urge people to pick a side: Team Dom-inance or Team Treat. Michael Wombacher instead gives readers what they really need: a comprehensive, hands-on, visual how-to that works across the board. A veteran trainer, Wombacher knows all the competing theories but also knows that in reality, it is a range of methods that gets dogs and their humans where they need to be. His Integrated Dog Training is a much-needed commonsense approach that avoids cookie-cutter dictates and recognizes the in-dividuality of each training situation. While the approach heavily emphasizes positive reinforcement, it also leaves room for corrective tactics when necessary.
