Leave It! How to teach Amazing Impulse Control to your Brilliant Family Dog (Essential Skills for a Brilliant Family Dog, Book 2)
Does your dog steal anything that’s not nailed down?
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

Reviews
“This is such a brilliant series of books. I got Leave It first and then bought the other three as soon as I'd finished it. I only wish I'd known about them when my dog was a pup. He’s a whole lot better now at calming down when we have visitors, at dropping and leaving stuff (due to this book) and - wonder of wonders - leaving poop: thank you!" LF
“Ellie will now sit and wait till I open the door when we are going for a walk which is great as she used to be jumping up at me or the door in excitement.” AH
“I must write to you to give you BIG thanks! Before Christmas I bought Leave it! because I'm training my 4-legged vacuum cleaner to stop eating all kinds of things in the street. Am "only" at chapter 3 - and this guy got the message!! Can't believe it. It works fine for this food-driven Whippet - it’s already a big achievement and is the main reason I have to give thanks.” SM
“We're currently working on Leave it! and I just wanted to let you know how happy I am!! I would never have thought my 15-week outrageously energetic puppy would have picked it up so quickly without me ever having to say a word but she certainly has. We've worked on leaving food very successfully and this morning I transferred it to the front door. Within 10 minutes - and again without saying a word to her - she figured it out and sat perfectly lovely with the front door wide open waiting for me to give her the go-ahead. I'm so very pleased and will be recommending this book to all and sundry.” DW
