Train a Dog, but Raise the Child

- A practical primer

Bag om Train a Dog, but Raise the Child

Although my dog Scamp is the lead actor in this book, it is not a book about dogs. Children are the real focus, and the content is addressed to their grown-up handlers-the parents and teachers who guide them out of their blissful state of infant irresponsibility, through the challenges of childhood, and into their own unique, self-determined biographies.Training dogs and raising humans have startling areas of congruence. Mothers, fathers, grandparents, aunts, uncles, teachers, caregivers, or anyone working with children, I thought, might want to partake of lessons Scamp taught me.This book is my attempt to convey those lessons and their applications to school, home, and most significantly, life.From the Table of Contents: - Why Not Eat the Chocolate First?- A Child is Not a Dog- Firmness, Fairness, and Consistency; Practice and Repetition- Child Whisperers- Treats and Punishments- Be Cool!
