Dog Training Books

Books by Jeff Millman, CTC 

Science-Based Training for Real-World Challenges


Every dog can learn to feel safe and confident with the right approach. Jeff Millman’s Triggers and Reactions series helps owners and trainers solve challenging behaviors—barking, biting, jumping, or leash aggression—through humane, step-by-step training methods. Each book blends clear science with practical experience from more than twenty years of professional dog training.

Featured Titles:

Triggers and Reactions – Volume 1: On-Leash Aggression
Help your dog stay calm and focused on walks.
When dogs bark, lunge, or growl on leash, they’re reacting from stress or fear—not defiance. Learn how to change those emotions through movement, desensitization, and calm communication.

Triggers and Reactions – Volume 2: Jumping, Barking, and Biting
Transform chaotic greetings into calm connections.
Whether your dog jumps on guests, barks when people arrive, or reacts out of fear, this book teaches you to reduce anxiety, build trust, and guide him toward confident, polite greetings.

Separation Anxiety (ebook)
For dogs who panic when left alone.
Jeff’s earlier ebook remains a trusted resource for helping dogs relax when separated from their families.
