Dr. Dennis Fetko, "Dr. Dog", Publishes His First Dog Training Ebook
San Diego, CA (PRWeb) March 26, 2007 -- Dr. Dennis Fetko, "Dr. Dog"--world-renowned animal behaviorist and popular radio talk show host--publishes his first dog training ebook on solving dog behavior problems. In the ebook, Dr. Dog's Fast, Easy, Fun Behavior Solutions, Dr. Fetko details his methods for eliminating dog behavior problems including barking, chewing, jumping, digging, pulling, aggression, fighting, soiling and puppy housetraining. Dr. Fetko launches his ebook at http://www.DrDogsBehaviorSolutions.com.
Dr. Fetko is a recognized as one of the nation's foremost authorities on canine behavioral therapy. He was chosen by the 20/20 television program as their animal behaviorist in a segment on animal collectors. Dr. Randall Lockwood, behaviorist and Vice President of the Humane Society of the United States, requested Dr. Fetko's assistance as an expert witness with the Justin McCarthy case--the largest animal abuse case in the country.
Additionally, Dr. Fetko has addressed veterinary and dog control conferences from Brazil to New Zealand. Municipal and private agencies in 42 states and six countries use Dr. Fetko's Field Officer Bite Safety Program as their dog bite prevention bible. Talkin' Animals with Dr. Dog, Dr. Fetko's radio talk show on 760-KFMB in San Diego, is that station's longest-running show (over ten years).
In his ebook, Dr. Dog's Fast, Easy, Fun Behavior Solutions, Dr. Fetko presents his methods for eliminating the most common dog behavior problems. These include barking, chewing, jumping, digging, pulling aggression fighting, soiling and puppy housetraining. Dr. Fetko's methods are based on animal behavioral research and canine communication realities.
The cornerstones of Dr. Fetko's dog training methods are "talking dog"--communicating with a dog on a level he can understand--and positive reinforcement. Dr. Fetko states that, "In dog training, 'jerk' is a noun, not a verb. If anyone has to jerk, choke or beat up a dog to train him, they shouldn't be allowed near anything with a pulse!"
Dr. Dog's Fast, Easy, Fun Behavior Solutions does not contain any information on obedience training since Dr. Fetko does not believe that obedience training solves behavior problems. According to Dr. Fetko, "If you obedience-train a dog that bites children, you'll end up with a dog that sits, stays and--bites children."
Dr. Fetko passion--and the reason he has devoted his professional career to eliminating problem behaviors in dogs--is to save dogs' lives. Millions of dogs are killed each year because of behavior problems that could be solved with proper training.
