We all know the story of the dog who can perform a variety of behaviors perfectly in the backyard but falls apart in the obedience ring. This book is full of great ideas and strategies to help your dog do his best no matter what the distractions or conditions may be. Written with both the novice and advanced trainer in mind, Debby and Judy present detailed information on the hows and whys of proofing and how to successfully incorporate proofing into any training program to help produce a reliable and confident canine partner in the ring. In addition, the book is full of specific ideas for thorough proofing of all AKC obedience exercises. Readers will find scores of these ideas are also useful for proofing Rally exercises.

"As a trainer, I am always looking for new ways to proof our dogs' obedience work. This is the book to have - literally hundreds of ideas in one book. The sections are divided by type of training (stays, recalls, etc) and easy to scan. Some ideas are tried and true and some are new to me - proof with sound, distractions, distance, other animals, people. Great reference book - I'll be keeping it in my training bag. Whether you are a trainer, a competitor, a novice or even a companion dog handler, there will be something in this book for you."
