Effortless Dog Training tips in Self-Published Book

Dog training is not as simple as it seems. And becoming a dog trainer is a tough job as well. Of course, you cannot become an effective dog trainer if you do not have the passion for dogs. Other than that, you also need to have tremendous patience, be stiff and concise when handling your dog.

Being a dog trainer comes with different challenging yet fun responsibilities. You need to work with the type of breed your dog is and train it to follow commands and hone its skills; assess the development and progress of your canine pet all throughout the duration of the training.

Dog training is not only a exciting profession, it is also a great way to advocate social awareness about caring for and respecting dogs.

There are a number of things that you need to keep in mind when considering the dog training profession. Kevan Behan’s self-published book, Natural Dog Training, helps you understand what to expect when training dogs. It describes a canine’s social behavior and how dogs actually learn.

Natural Dog Training also outlines exercises and handling techniques for proper application and includes a special training program as well.

Kevin Behan started training dogs when he was ten. After twenty years of deeply understanding a dog’s behavior and instincts, with some fifty thousand dogs he had successfully trained, he then went on to publish Natural Dog Training.

Do you REALLY know what to do when you get promoted?


Every year in corporate America, thousands of employees continue to be promoted into management positions with little preparation for what they will confront.

The assumption remains that if employees are good enough to be promoted they instinctively know what to do in their new role. Instead, the new boss is challenged by situations he is poorly equipped to handle, causing frustration for him and dissatisfaction among the employees.

Peter Woan’s self-published book, They made you boss, Now what?, is written from his first-hand experience and describes different aspects of the boss’s job. Unsure what to do now that you are moved up to a higher position?

They made you boss, Now what? provides practical insights for the new boss, the experienced boss and even the aspiring boss.

Peter Woan was born and educated in England and then moved to the USA after getting a job as department manager in one of the biggest insurance brokers in the world. He was then promoted to branch manager, then national COO of the specialty insurance division. After working for the said company for a long period of time, he then moved to join another insurance firm.

Curbing Child Obesity


Obesity in children has become increasingly common not just in the United States but all over the world. In fact, the World Health Organization (WHO) has considered child obesity a global epidemic.

Studies show that obese children are most likely to carry this condition until adulthood. In fact, they are more prone to a plethora of health problems. Chronic diseases such as coronary artery disease, hypertension, diabetes, metabolic disease and certain types of cancer also develop in childhood as well.

Aside from health problems, obese children tend to have low self-esteem, as they are often teased. They also become left out of social activities because they move about slow. This makes them susceptible to depression.

Left untreated, obesity can be fatal to one’s health. With the right diet and exercise, this condition can be treated. This is where the role of parents comes in. They should serve as positive role models for their child and give all the support and encouragement possible.

T. Allan Brenner's self-published book, The Childhood Obesity Dilemma critically looks at child obesity and presents realistic solutions to curb this growing trend. This book is a must-read not only for parents, but also for community leaders and policy makers as well.

The book author is a health and fitness buff. He is currently a high school athletic official and teaches k-8 physical education in Chicago, Illinois.

There’s more to reporting for work than simply hitting targets, meeting deadlines and attending meetings.

Cynthia A. Jerkins, a self-published book author gives a fresh perspective on life in the workplace through A Reason to Show Up for Work Tomorrow Morning.

This self-published book is a must-read for many of us who have to drag our feet to leave the house and be in the office every day when the corporate life we live is nothing but an ocean full of toxins: Your boss does nothing but put you down, your customers could never be satisfied, your colleagues couldn’t care less and the results you deliver are hardly noticed. It’s a very distressful life – if you call that life at all!

A Reason to Show Up for Work Tomorrow Morning presents a different way of looking at the workplace. The book author highlights value and integrity and stresses the importance of making excellence as a lifestyle. We cannot control or change what happens to us, but we always have the option to change the way we respond to our circumstances.

Cynthia A. Jerkins has a profound experience with different kinds of superiors and colleagues in various workplaces. The depth of her understanding of the professional world and her experiences in a government office propelled her to publish a book.
