House and Pet Dogs; Their Selection, Care and Training 1890

Examples of establishing operations, conditioned punishers, and treat training in the book. The book mentions whip, whistle, and switch in training too.  A good book to study early pet training and how it has evolved.

Clearly states position of the "heel" is to follow at heel, and also teaches a "place" command. Very interesting old book. As in most books the importance of patience and kindness is mentioned as a prerequisite of the trainer.
