Famous dog-lover and trainer Uncle Matty (aka Matthew Margolies) has earned the limelight by training dogs of celebrities and making expert appearances on network television. Known for being able to convert a dog to being responsive, sometimes in mere minutes, Uncle Matty's skills are famous in their own rite. His "love, praise, affection" technique is the base of all he has accomplished. In this video, he demonstrates the need to get to the real root of problems, and the importance of training with love and support rather than through punishment. He covers subjects from choosing a puppy and making the dog at ease in your home to obedience and behavior problem solving, all with a loving approach. A dog trainer since 1968, Uncle Matty is the host of the PBS series Woof! It's a Dog's Life and shares his heartfelt knowledge in this informative video. ~ Sarah Sloboda, All Movie Guide
