This book explores the fascinating science of operant conditioning, where science and dog training meet. How Dogs Learn discusses the basic principles of behavior and how they can be used to teach your dog new skills, diagnose problems, and eliminate unwanted behaviors. It's for anyone who wants to better understand the learning process in dogs. Every concept is laid out clearly and precisely, and its relevance to your dog and how you train is explained.

Fantastic book for all the training basics
Well written and narrated, I will re-listen to this book at some point and take notes as I found it went into a lot of used details on a variety of training techniques, backed up with easy to understand examples and studies.

Mixed feelings.
Contains information about how dogs learn and stresses our responsibility in raising well behaved dogs. I probably learned quite a bit from it. However I think the presentation of the material is patronising and intimidating. I think the narrator probably captures the tone of the written word correctly and there is humour in there but it is sarcastic, which I am normally ok with, but I found it too damning.

Great Book but....
Really need a hardcopy too for referencing. Also down to personal preference but found the reader hard to listen too at times.

Interesting book
The narration was very stilted, even for a book of this type. The content, however, was excellent. I’m just about to begin listening a second time through as there’s so much to take in!

A Definite for Aspiring Dog Trainers.
Also great for the owner who wants to know more, to understand learning theory and how it applies to the canine world. Great book on Learning and how dogs learn.

Excellent book highly recommend
I have had this book on audible and listened to more than a few times. Everytime I listen to it I pick up another bit of knowledge. As a dog trainer I would recommend this book

Dreadful!
This book was awful - stilted, robotic narration and the content was pretty terrible too. It was like being read to from a boring text book where they read out the scientific tables. I have no idea who this book would appeal to, but certainly not any pet dog owner. Honestly, it was so bad, that it’s actually annoyed me that I’ve lost several hours of my life that I won’t get back again!
