V životě je spousta věcí zadarmo – Sdao Kathy (2013)

Over the past 20 years, countless trainers and instructors around the world have adopted dog training methods based on positive reinforcement. One of the fundamental ideas these methods are based on is that "nothing in life is free," meaning that every reward, regardless of its form, must be earned by the dog first. However, as Kathy Sdao says, there are many pleasant things in the lives of both people and dog packs that are free. Is it right and effective to lead or even force a dog to earn all privileges? This doesn't look like true partnership. Shouldn't a person alternate in rewarding and leading their dog instead? Is there not a deeply ingrained specter of the necessity of a dominant position in the human-dog pack lurking beneath the surface, despite being considered outdated? Does our excessive adherence to the belief that nothing in life is free lead us down an incorrect training path? Kathy Sdao has been professionally engaged in animal training for over 25 years. She initially started with cetaceans and later transitioned to dogs. Her book will entertain you at times and provoke thought at others, not only about your dog, training, and your relationship with it, but often about yourself as well.
