Tamar Geller Helps You Train
Your Own "Loved Dog"
Barbara Benvil Photography
If your dog thinks "sit" is a suggestion or greets
guests by jumping up; if you want to change your
relationship with your dog in a way that's fun for
both of you, then you're ready for Tamar Geller's
new book, "The Loved Dog: The Playful,
Nonaggressive Way to Teach Your Dog Good
Behavior" and her DVD, "Celebrate Your Dog!"

You may recognize Geller from her
previous work
with The HSUS, from her appearances as the
animal correspondent on "The Today Show," or from her appearance on
"Oprah."

More than a conventional dog trainer, Geller is really a "life coach" for
dogs and their people. Her goal extends beyond solving individual dogs'
problems. Like The HSUS, Geller wants to keep millions of dogs out of
shelters by strengthening the bond between dogs and their families. She
knows that behavior problems are one of the main reasons dogs are
given up. By addressing those problems, more dogs can spend their
entire lives as members of a happy family.

At the heart of her training approach—and heart is the operative word—
is the belief that a dog's better nature and best manners can be brought
out through mutual understanding and respect, not physical dominance,
aggressive techniques, prong collars or choke chains. She uses games
to engage dogs in "play-training" and teaches people how to really
communicate with their canine companions.

Until now, most of the dogs and people who were lucky enough to benefit
from Tamar's approach lived in Southern California, where she founded
the area's first cage-free dog boarding and day care center. Now, her
book, published by Simon Spotlight Entertainment, is available to
everyone. Because Tamar is a good friend and advisor to The HSUS,
she and Simon Spotlight Entertainment included a foreward by HSUS
President and CEO Wayne Pacelle and a brief overview of our
Pets for
Life campaign at the end of the book. So hundreds of thousands of
readers will be introduced to The HSUS as they enjoy the book.

The 2-disc "Celebrate Your Dog" DVD provides an entertaining and
visual guide to Basic Manners, with a Bonus Housebreaking Lesson and
Quick Tips.
