Many lucky dogs and happy families have gotten a new leash on life with the help of television’s favorite dog trainer, Uncle Matty, whose refrain "Uncle Matty’s proud!" has become well known to millions of PBS and Good Morning America viewers. Public television has not been the same since Matthew "Uncle Matty" Margolis demonstrated his animal magnetism by casting a magic spell on the good, the bad, and the beautiful.

This very readable training guide covers such subjects as testing for temperament, creating an emotional attachment with your dog, and evaluating training equipment, in addition to teaching you how to teaching your dog basic obedience commands such as Sit, Stay, Heel, Down, Come. Jumping off every page of Uncle Matty’s Ultimate Guide to Dog Training, are the same techniques, in a similar format, seen on the recent TV series, Woof! It’s a Dog’s Life with Matthew Margolis presented on PBS by WGBH, Boston, and his PBS television specials Woof! A Guide to Dog Training and Woof! Woof! Uncle Matty’s Guide to Dog Training.
