It gives you really easy to follow ways of making sure you are on top so to speak and as such makes training a dog much easier when he understands and knows his position even if its just you and him. I you google her name it brings up the web site where she tells you a littl about how she started and yo can order the books off there , a well worth read honestly . I hope all goes well for you were all here to lend an ear if times and training get tough , I just noticed you dont live all that far from me i live in selly oak how funny . any way keep in touch and all the best with Yogi
