Dog Zen Book

Everything you need to know to transform your dog

Ever wanted a harmonious, happy bond with your dog? Want to be able to trust your dog in any situation? Then this is the book for you!

You’ll learn to truly understand your dog, how to build a harmonious, happy relationship, raise a loving pup, and fix the most common behavioural problems. It is all so possible!

A transformative, practical guide to developing the ultimate relationship with your dog. It is fascinating and easy to read, full of stories and beautiful photos of the dogs in my life.

Here’s what you’ll learn in each section

Part A: The Dog
Discover the astounding story of how dogs evolved from wolves. You wouldn’t have a wolf in your living room, so how is it that dogs have become our most trusted companions? Learn how to see through their eyes and delve deeply into the mind of your dog, their senses, and how they perceive the world. Build an incredibly strong foundation for all the training you do together through this understanding.

Part B: The training foundations

Develop all the training foundations you need to establish that harmonious, happy relationship you are looking for.

You will:

  • Create a Shared Language so you communicate in a way your dog actually understands!
  • Find out about your dog’s Learning State and how critical it is for training.
  • Establish a Lifelong Bond where your dog looks to you for direction in all situations, including all the Basic Tools, Techniques and Commands of dog training.

When you build these foundations with your dog, you’ll find that your life together is stress-free, loving, happy and enjoyable. Just the way it should be!

Part C: Puppy love - prevention is better than cure
Doing the ‘right thing at the right time’ with your puppy is crucial and the fundamental to having a happy, reliable adult dog. Discover what to consider when you are getting a puppy, how to choose the one for you, and exactly what to do when. If every person followed the advice in this book, we could eliminate all preventable dog behaviour problems within a single generation. Wouldn’t that be fantastic?! Even if you don’t have a pup, this section will still be useful for understanding your adult dog, laying the foundations to transforming their problem behaviours.

Sonia - Breeder Cider Field Labradoodles, Australia

“As a breeder of working lines of labradoodles, we recommend all owners to get a copy of Puppy Zen, and read it before they get their pup. It has been a very helpful book and we are consistently told how prepared they feel for their pup, and we notice that the transition into their new homes is extremely smooth. If people are thinking of getting a pup, we would wholeheartedly recommend Puppy Zen and also Mark’s training videos. The information in Puppy Zen will give you the key to continue with the training from when puppy comes home, through the crucial early socialising period.”
