We have often watched Victoria Stillwell’s television show, and we’ve enjoyed her brisk no-nonsense style combined with positive reinforcement training methods. I get a kick out of how she comes to the rescue in such a wide variety of situations, dishing out a lot of common sense advice.

Here is her most recent book: Train Your Dog Positively: Understand Your Dog and Solve Common Behavior Problems Including Separation Anxiety, Excessive Barking, Aggression, Housetraining, Leash Pulling, and More!

Here is her discussion of dominance training vs positive reinforcement, including why she uses the latter. One thing I like about her is that she has a no-nonsense style. Sometimes people think that postive dog training has to be nicey-nice. Not so!

Here is a website of hers, vspdt.com, which is for people who would like to become part of her dog training network.

See her website at https://positively.com/ — I love the name!. A useful page is a list of articles of hers you can read: http://positively.com/positive-reinforcement/victoria-stilwell-articles/
