I really loved this actually. Even though my dog is not a puppy (he's a twoish-year-old rescue), there were toooonnnsss of great training tips and insights into how to create a meaningful, communicative relationship with your dog.
I really love how Zak uses super-positive reinforcement at all times, even in the tone of voice and "jackpotting" training behavior. Actually, his approach to dog training reminds me a lot of Montessori education, which I am a lifelong fan of. His method is all about trusting your dog, learning what they need, figuring out what they're interested in, and communicating maturely. It's not about being the "alpha" or the "dominant" owner of your dog; training should really be a mutual journey. I really love this approach, and fits way way more into my preferred way of teaching/training.
I definitely recommend this for any new dog owner, whether you've got a pup or rescue, or if you're just interested in learning about dog training for the first time! It's fairly basic and really straight forward, but immensely helpful in understanding how dogs learn.
