You'll be enlightened about the myths and misconceptions in dog training so you can recognize which training processes can work the best for you and your dog together.

You will learn why and how you will never have to say "no" to your dog again. Plus, you'll learn to recognize different forms of aggression, what they mean and how they can develop and that "
Leadership Controls" along with specific "Obedience-Communication" techniques deal with these aggressions, other behavior issues and much more.

Through this personal guide, you will discover a less stressful way to train your special four-legged friend and enjoy him more than you ever imagined. It will open your mind and provide common sense insight into the wonderful world of communicating with your dog, just like you have always wanted. You will also recognize that whatever training methodology you choose to employ, that the principles you learn here can be used to enhance the proficiency of any process.

Cop Memoirs

Police-Writers.com, a website dedicated to listing state and local police officers who have authored books, added three police officers who have written their memoirs as cops.

Bernard Loughran joined the Philadelphia Police Department in 1947. After riding with senior officers for four months (basic police training) he was assigned to walking beats. After three years of walking alone he was assigned a patrol car and again usually patrolled alone. He volunteered for motorcycle duty in 1954 but an accident in 1955 ended that assignment. He returned to patrolling in a patrol car. In 1960 he became a sergeant and supervised a patrol squad. In 1970 he was assigned to a support unit and in 1983 retired after 36 years of service.

According to the description of Brass Buttons: A Policeman’s Log, “
Bernie Loughran never expected police work would be interesting. He expected long dreary hours confined in a patrol car or repetitive hours on monotonous walking beats. He thought his primary function would be issuing tickets for parking and moving violations but instead every day hummed with excitement. The highlights he wished to remember he noted in a personal diary. These experiences are his but every police officer has similar stories to tell. Brass Buttons revels the job is actually chock-full of excitement and all a person needs to be a good policeman is common sense and self-confidence”

Thomas Grubb, a thirty-year veteran of the Philadelphia Police Department, co-authored an autobiography with his nephew, Allan Cole. According to the book description, “Christmas, 1953: While the rest of Philadelphia sings "Jingle Bells," Tom Grubb gets his first taste of a cop's life. Before he cashes his first paycheck he encounters: A man gutted by a knife-wielding mugger; A fighting-mad mental case intent on destroying a hospital emergency room; The hushed-up shooting death of an undercover cop. That first week is nothing compared to what lies ahead during the next thirty years. A Cop's Life is the remarkable story of a truly remarkable man.”
