My Smart Puppy DVD Gets Rave Reviews!
print email

Now you can get your own My Smart Puppy training DVD by America's leading dog trainer, Brian Kilcommons and his partner Sarah Wilson. You and your puppy can get off on the right paw with this training DVD. Here's what Iams� Pet Care and Nutrition Specialists have to say about this helpful, new DVD:

Renowned authors/trainers Brian Kilcommons and Sarah Wilson, with support from the Iams Company, have created a wonderful resource that will be invaluable to a person obtaining their first puppy and useful to the most seasoned dog lover. My Smart Puppy is worth watching just for the joy of seeing videos of puppies but the DVD offers an abundance of solid advice that will help a new puppy become a solid citizen and valuable family member.

Sadly, the shelters of our Nation continue to receive many juvenile dogs that are surrendered because of perceived behavioral problems. In many, if not most, of these situations the problem is not bad behavior but a failure of the family to work together to provide consistent, reward-based training. As Brian strongly emphasizes in the introduction, a new puppy requires a lot of attention and several months of dedicated training to ensure success. I would urge anyone considering the addition of a new puppy to the family to study My Smart Puppy prior to acquisition so everyone can get off on the right foot or paw!

Two of the nation's foremost dog trainers, Brian Kilcommons and Sarah Wilson, share their combined puppy training techniques and wisdom with new owners on this spectacular DVD. It's puppytraining 101: the movie. Two dew claws up for this excellent production.

Having been the director of two of the largest animal care and control programs in the United States I have witnessed a disturbing trend over the years. Each year animal shelters see more and more dogs relinquished because of behavioral problems. These dogs were bought or adopted as cute puppies but were never provided the critical training they needed. When the cuteness wore off people felt they didn't have a beloved pet but rather a bothersome project. The simple training techniques Brian Kilcommons and Sarah Wilson provide in My Smart Puppy will help ensure your puppy becomes a beloved member of your family! My Smart Puppy should be a required part of every shelter adoption program.

This is probably the most comprehensive and well-presented training video for puppies I have seen. Clear and easy to understand it is full of great ways to train a young pup by making it fun as well as part of a habit forming routine. Brian and Sarah show in very clear stages what we need to do with our pups to help them become the wonderful companion we all desire. The pups are delightful, the explanations clear and structured and this is a video I would recommend to all new puppy owners, Brian and Sarah do it right with a smile and humor while the pups enjoy learning.

What a treat! Like half a dozen puppy tongues licking your face, "MY SMART PUPPY" is a warm, wise, and winning CD. It is beautifully produced. The hour flew by in a few wags of the tail. It is both entertaining and informative and a visual treat for the dog lover in all of us. Brian and Sarah are not only attractive performers but among the best dog trainers in the USA. After all these years in dogs even I learned new things. You will enjoy it.

This video shows a variety of training techniques that will truly increase the bond between you and your new puppy; finally, something that is all positive without all food reward.

I already have two dogs, but am getting another one! I simply couldn't resist it after seeing all those cute puppies so easily trained by Brian and Sarah. This was the most delicious (and helpful) hour of video viewing I've had in a long time.

Finally, a fun, well-presented DVD on puppy training showing actual training on a wide variety of puppies! Kilcommons and Wilson knock it out of the park!

Kilcommons and Wilson have done it again! This DVD is a wonderfully warm and extremely informative piece. Their methods have been incorporated into my Veterinary practice and will continue to be so in the future. This information transcends all ages of our canine friends and again I applaud their efforts!

As I watched your DVD all I could think of was that this DVD represented the years of experience you and Sarah have training dogs. It's practical and easy to understand and is the perfect primer for the novice pet owner as well as someone who has a lot of past experiences with dogs.
