Publisher's Synopsis
Your Akita is a smart and strong-willed dog. He is confident. Novice Akita owners might see that confidence as stubbornness, but you can build on your dog's natural confidence and desires to learn and train him to be obedient to you.
The Akita is one of the most versatile and interesting breeds. But it can also be one of the most difficult, depending on your individual dog's temperament, bloodlines, and nerves.
This book details a balanced approach to training your dog. Katz has traveled the world and worked with some of the best trainers he could find. Techniques and approaches are borrowed from those who train police dogs, search and rescue dogs, guide dogs for the blind, therapy and service dogs-- and anyone else who must have 100% reliability from their dog.
The information in this book will transform your dog into a happy, reliable, and confident companion you can take anywhere and know that he will respond eagerly and joyfully.
