We often think of dog training as teaching our dogs—but the truth is, they have just as much to teach us. Zen and the Art of Dog Training goes beyond the typical training guide, inviting us to look inward and explore the deep connection we share with our dogs—and ultimately, with ourselves.

Professional dog trainer Adam Halleck draws on his own journey of self-discovery and years of experience working with countless dogs and their humans. Blending practical techniques, training strategies, and timeless Zen wisdom, he reveals how most training challenges stem from imbalances in the relationship between dog and owner. The most valuable training requires growth at both ends of the leash.

This book is not sold alone on this website.  It is only sold as part of the Wine and Book Pairing or as an extra book when the the Pairing is purchased.  To order the book alone, visit Amazon. 



Dog training is a meditation, and our dogs are the best teachers. This innovative book unleashes a new understanding of the relationship we have with ourselves and our dogs.

About the author

Adam Halleck is a professional dog trainer and Zen practitioner passionate about uncovering the wisdom in the ancient bond between dogs and humans. He uses a therapeutic and systematic approach to explore how we relate to our dogs—and ourselves. His approach blends the practical foundations of dog training with the insight and clarity of Zen, emphasizing the subtle, emotional nature of the relationship—beyond technique. Through his transformational work, Adam invites readers to set aside their intellectual understanding of dog training and make space for something entirely new to emerge in their lives with their dogs.

To Adam, training dogs is a meditation, and when we’re ready to learn, our dogs can show us the way. His dog, Lala, has been his most profound teacher, a true shepherd in every sense. Adam now lives with his partner and five dogs in Los Angeles, doing what he loves: helping dogs and people reach their fullest potential.
