Leave It!: How to teach Amazing Impulse Control to your Brilliant Family Dog
About this ebook
Learn how to:
🐕 Leave food on the table
🐕 Forget shoes and toys on the floor
🐕 Know your rubbish is safe in the bin
- without having to mount an armed guard to protect it all from your family dog!
This book will take you step-by-step through some simple and surprising games which will turn your thieving rascal into a saintly pooch who can be trusted with cakes on the coffee table, dinner on the counter, biscuits in the children’s hands, and who will confine his chewing to the things you give him to chew.
Instead of saying “This is what you do,” then leaving you to it, Beverley takes you by the hand and troubleshoots all the games so that you can get them absolutely right. And the joy is that this is all achieved without shouting, force, or intimidation. Just pure undiluted fun!
There’s no strange jargon, no “Thou shalt not’s”, and every time you get stuck, another solution pops up. Her years of experience in face-to-face classes as well as her online programs shine through. Having taught thousands of new owners how to work with their puppies and dogs - entirely without force - as a professional positive dog trainer Beverley Courtney knows just what you’re up against!
“Leave it! has been very useful and we can now leave a pile of horse-poo in exchange for a piece of chicken. The books are worth every penny.” DS

About the author
Beverley Courtney has two strings to her bow! First, she is the author of the popular Brilliant Family Dog series of step-by-step, force-free dog training books.
And she is now emerging as a serious novelist, with her Literary Fiction novels "Keeping Tabs" and "Seeking Clarity", dealing with issues that so many women experience.
Beverley has lived with dogs all her life. She qualified her Battersea Dogs’ Home rescue Poppy as a Working Trials Champion - and has enjoyed herself hugely for many years helping new owners with their dogs and puppies through her books, classes, and online courses.
Using the latest scientific breakthroughs in dog behaviour, with a no-force / no-blame / no-shame approach, she is dedicated to improving communication between owner and dog. Once you jettison the idea that it’s a one-way process (“I said SIT”) and start understanding how your dog learns, training becomes a breeze.
Her fresh approach has helped hundreds of families discover the joy of choice-based training. The first four books address the four Essential Skills for a Brilliant Family Dog (yes! there are just four!), featuring one of her students’ favourite skills - getting their frantic puppy to relax!
Beverley’s next three books address the tricky problem many dog-owners experience - of having a dog who barks and reacts to other dogs. Or people. Or bikes … Drawing on her own experience with her Growly Dog Lacy, together with extensive study, she brings the gentle and humorous approach that her readers love. There is no blame or shame here - just empathy, understanding, and masses of how-to’s to get you enjoying your walks with your dog again.
Get yourself a really useful dog, by mastering the retrieve with Fetch It!, so that after an enjoyable walk playing ball or frisbee, she can fetch your slippers and the tv remote for you!
And new puppy-owners, so often lost and at sea in this new world, can get things right from the start. New Puppy! will remove the frustration and guide you to build an unbreakable bond with your pup.
