It's Me or the Dog

It's Me or the Dog

"It's Me or the Dog" is a television program produced by UK television production company Ricochet, in which dog trainer Victoria Stilwell tackles behaviour problems in dogs by teaching their owners responsible dog ownership. Known as much for her natural ability to train any dog as for her vivacious style and good looks, Victoria promotes positive reinforcement-based dog training techniques reliant on teaching both owner and dog through positive associations and confidence. The show is currently airing in over 20 countries worldwide.
