My Mission: To Find All the Reasons Why Dogs Didn't Thrive to Their Fullest Potential.

I was shocked to find that the "real cause" had very little to do with the dogs' age, breed,
size, intelligence, history, or even personality, but had everything to do with the
“human element.”

Dog owners and even dog trainers from all around the globe were skillfully misled, influenced and even brainwashed. Sadly, all this had a tremendous affect on their beliefs, attitude, technique, drive, sense of hope, creativity, and of course--their level of success.

Book's Description: This book takes a deeper look at modern dog training and canine psychology while it also introduces you to the next level and the future of training and canine behavior modification—“The Diverse Method.”

Think about it. If there are more than four hundred different breeds of dogs in this world, how can they possibly all respond to only one way of training? Have you ever considered that fact? You see, every dog was bred specifically for a purpose. So for any expert to argue that you can train EACH AND EVERY ONE with just Positive Reinforcement or Negative Reinforcement show their arrogance, lack of experience and diversity.

The secret is to follow a "Diverse Reinforcement" because, just as with humans, dogs don't always respond to a strictly positive or negative approach. Here's where it gets more interesting. All dog trainers know this, but don't or can't teach it in their training method.

Did I Get Your Attention?!?!

Look, you are definitely NOT going to be safe, smart or successful if you rely on just one way of training as a crutch. The key to greatness is to arm yourself with different training techniques that will prepare you for ANY dog, despite their age, size, strengths, intelligence, past history or personality. Again, I am talking about being "Diverse" because no method and no training tool is guaranteed to work in every situation and on every dog. That's just a fact!

This is one of those rare books that will make you smile, make you laugh, make you think and even challenge you to push yourself far beyond your leash or your bag of treats. It is filled with life lessons along with my incredible journey with dogs from all walks of life.

If you are the sensitive type, you may get a few lumps in your throat. I've spent a decade writing this book, which inspired me to learn something new from every dog, every owner and every trainer I've encountered. So, in a way, the book has grown with me.

My hope is that when you finish it, both you and your dog will be able to communicate with one another much more effectively.

INTRODUCTION

From the Book "Hidden Secrets Behind Dog Training."
Exposing the Secret World of Dog Training and Dog Trainers.

Question: With so many different training methods out there, how do you REALLY know which one is the best, the fastest and the most effective way to train your dog?

Answer: Here’s the first secret I will reveal: Always look for a method that is logical, practical, versatile, humane, and easy to follow.

After ten years of studying and comparing different trainers’ methods, I found that by far the “Diverse Method” is the only way that has proven itself to work against tough odds. Best of all, it met every one of the above challenges.

This book reveals some of the most eyebrow-raising secrets in the world of dog training. Regardless of so many sources available than ever, you’ll be shocked to find out the great lengths the majority of trainers have gone in order to hide what I’m about to reveal in pages of this book. Most of this wisdom was left out unknowingly or intentionally. In some cases, you’ll notice just how far they have gone in trying to brainwash even the “trainers.” I promise you, what you are about to read has never been revealed before. Which is what makes this book a one-of-a-kind in its field.

Since your dog will go in different stages in his life or you may have different goals and expectations in regards to his training or rehabilitation, I strongly recommend that you read it more than once. You’ll agree that every time you do so, you’ll notice something new that you missed last time or a new behavior pattern which your dog didn’t possess a few months or even years before. And since people change all the time, so do dogs. Like a great chess player the idea is to stay ahead of the game and never be caught off guard.

After reading many books on dog training, canine behavior and dog psychology, I noticed that a very small percentage of the dog experts, were considered to be the “real deal.” What I found most shocking was how so many flaws in their training method. They were irrational, impractical and sometimes even ridiculous. To make matters worse, their method was poorly planned and sometimes even complicated, which explained why it stopped working in real-life scenarios. Let’s face it. Anybody can make something complicated. But simplifying a task, while remaining effective, takes talent and skill. These so-called “experts” missed a very important factor: Practicality!

One of the major misconceptions that I found in most of these books was offering the “same” advice for all types of dogs. The experts blindly tried to squeeze every dog into the “one method fits all” category. This was done continuously, regardless of the dog’s size, breed, history or temperament. Having this kind of mentality clearly revealed the trainer’s lack of experience and versatility.

Think about this for a moment. How can any dog, regardless of its age, breed, intelligence, size and physical strength, respond to only one way of training? If someone promises you this, they are not relying on facts but rather living in a world of denial or fantasy! When it comes to our way of thinking, we humans are so much different from one another. What makes you think it is not so when it comes to our dogs? A wise approach would be to simply customize your
training technique based on your dog’s character and according to your goals and expectations. Now that is the power of diversity.

Don’t you think that in order to achieve maximum results, you need to be flexible and improvise if and when necessary? How is this not common sense?
Unlike the majority of dog training books out there, mine challenges you to think far beyond treat-based training and here’s why: With over two decades of training thousands of dogs, I am convinced now more than ever that relying heavily on the use of treats may get you quick, but short-lived results. Ironically, this method has become so popular in recent years that poor dog owners hardly dare to question or even challenge it.

........................................................................................................
It is not smart or safe to rely only on one method as a crutch.
No method works every time or on every dog! A sign of a great
trainer is one who’s willing to adjust according to every dog,
every owner and every situation.
.........................................................

You see, it is one thing to be able to get a dog's attention with tasty treats when you are at home with no unexpected distractions. But it’s a totally different story to be able to pull it off around hard-to-avoid real life scenarios. After working with dogs of different personalities, I realize that it is NOT smart to assume that you can “reliably” train any dog by using treats alone.

You will get far better results and a natural bond when you become your dog’s leader.
After all, anybody can become the dog’s best friend by giving treats day and night. Not just being Mommy Daddy, or even an Alpha, but rather be an effective teacher. Combine that with praise, proper technique and dog psychology and you are guaranteed to get yourself eyebrow raising results.

By thinking “diverse,” you’ll be able to correct your mistakes and cut down on your training time. There will be no more guesswork that comes with poor knowledge and wrong training techniques. You’ll be able to tell which methods are effective and which were never meant to work in the first place. Best of all, you don’t have to take my word for it. Let your own progress and comparison be the most convincing of all.

Inside the Fascinating Mind of Dog Experts: 

You’ll get a rare glimpse inside the world of canine professionals. Isn’t it nice to learn the secrets of how “they” interpret and modify canine behavior to their advantage? I will expose many ways to hire the best expert for your dog’s needs. You see, rather than just putting a leash on your dog and having him obey you like a soldier, you’ll master the secrets of how to combine dog psychology with dog training.

Another great secret that you’ll learn from reading this book is how to accurately read your dog’s personality. You’ll learn to be on the lookout for certain behavior patterns. Bottom line, you’ll know exactly why your dog acts and thinks certain ways in different situations. These traits will help you detect all warning signs of an overprotective, dominant, or soon-to-be aggressive dog like a pro.

"Diverse Method": The Next Level and the Future of Dog Training!

I dare to hold up a mirror not only to dog owners, but also to trainers, behaviorists and dog psychologists around the world to prove that diversity IS the most important factor in achieving outstanding results.

The main reason why the majority of dog experts don’t thrive to their fullest potential is that they are one-dimensional. That’s right. They are afraid to step outside their style or comfort zone. Any effective expert will agree that in order to be great, you have to be able to think “outside the box.” Once you learn to properly combine different methods in a smart and humane fashion, you’ll become invincible. It all comes down to this: when you limit your options, you simply limit your success. It is as simple as that!

Topnotch dog trainers, just like the top musicians, top fighters, or top gourmet chefs, are
known to improvise and rarely run out of tricks. The idea is to never get caught off guard with any dog, any owner or any problem.

I’ll be upfront and will be the first one to tell you that not all of your dog’s training concerns will be solved just by reading my book. This is why I’ve explained in great detail how to hire the right expert who can and is willing to deliver real and long-term results with your dog’s particular needs. After all, there is only so much ANY book can offer. (Some of these experts will be in your home town and some will not. Don’t worry. I’ve revealed smart ways to deal with both.) This is where you’ll learn how to weed out amateurs from the pros. I’ve told everything you need to know about interviewing these experts effectively.

Regardless of how many titles, years of experience, written books, demo dog or Ph.D.’s someone offers in their resume, the million-dollar-question is this: Can they meet your expectations and able or willing to train or rehabilitate “your dog”? That should be your main objective. To achieve tangible results that you can see and ultimately even brag about, is what I’m referring to.

Eyebrow Raising Truths Behind the Dog Training Industry:

The canine associations that aren’t followers of the “Diverse Method” did not want me to expose the information you are about to read in this book. Yes, I am the one who dares to blow the whistle on the dog training industry and offer you an “insider’s perspective.” Folks, I am revealing what is REALLY going on behind the scenes. This is where you’ll finally be able to see the world from different trainers' points of view and find out what makes them a failure or a phenomenal success.

I also have debunked many myths about dogs, dog training and even trainers with facts, humor, and real-life examples. I believe that you are entitled to the truth. And not just my truth, but the essential truths behind the entire “dog training industry,” then you decide on what is real and what isn’t. What makes sense and what is just plain nonsense.

I’m sure you’ll agree that it is not just knowledge that is power, but it is the USE of that knowledge that makes us powerful. Otherwise knowledge, any knowledge, is just plain information. Folks, it is what we do with it that counts.

Read this book cover-to-cover before drawing your final conclusions. What you’ll learn in it will automatically make you far more knowledgeable, versatile and much more effective than ninety percent of dog owners and, surprisingly, the majority of dog experts out there! Bottom line, you will discover the hard-to-find secrets that have been jealously guarded by the pioneers of dog training. Dog owners often pay top money to get their hands on such secrets. I know I did.

About the Author:

Kevin Salem is considered to be a prominent philosopher and one of the brightest minds in the world of dog training. It’s hard to paint Kevin’s image with the same brush as others, as his unique way of "Diverse Method" and philosophy, makes him very distinct.

Ever since he was young, Kevin has been able to relate and communicate with dogs in a very special way. You know when you meet a natural. We’ve all seen one. These individuals are rarely taught, but rather born. In over two decades of working with different breeds, he has successfully trained well over 10,000 dogs worldwide, earning him the nickname,“The Dog Prodigy.”

He is one of those rare experts in his field who has the knowledge and the expertise to accept challenging cases that the majority of dog schools simply don’t want to deal with. We are referring to “red zone dogs,” and those already given up on by many trainers, veterinarians and even animal behaviorists. He is proud of saving hundreds of these dogs from abandonment, shelters, or worse, euthanasia.

Kevin gained his experience from studying and practicing different methods of training. To expand his knowledge even further, he also compared the strengths and weaknesses of different theories from more than a hundred books on dog training, dog behavior, and canine psychology.

Mr. Salem currently operates his school, Dog Secrets, where he offers house calls not only throughout the US, but globally. You may also send your dog to his most popular program, the Doggie Boot Camp.

Have you noticed that the very best things in life are rarely "things". They are your loved ones, your happiness, your passion, your health, your attitude, your love, and your accomplishment.
