Why dog training books sell so well...

I have three. I read parts of all of them. I did some practicing with our puppy. Then I stopped. Why? I don't know why. The books are all pretty clear. Training involves steady work, not a lot of work but you have to be consistent and keep at it. It's all about rules and reinforcement.

So now we know why dog books sell so well. We are always looking for something to get us back on track after we "failed" to follow the last book's advice. Maybe subconsciously we are all searching for the one book that will show us how to have a well-trained dog without doing any work. I'm going to write that book, entitled Train Your Dog in 21 Treats :)
