 Great information March 19, 2008
This book has a lot of information in it from some great trainers. Definitely a good one for a beginner.
 Good for beginners. January 14, 2008
Was very informative and helpful in understanding Schutzund. It gave good training methods if you intend to train your dog from the puppy level.
Great Book - very detiled and informative August 17, 2007
Told me what I wanted to know in great detail and with great clarity.

A must for GSD owners July 30, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
There is only so much I can actually do with my 14-year old resuced GSD, but I really think that if more people understood the types of things these dogs were meant to do (which do not include sitting around all day and lacking a confident leader to follow), far lass would end up in rescues every year. Just the first section was really helpful. This applies to other working breeds too, of course, but this is one of several books that have helped me get inside my dog's head, helped me understand how he's been misunderstood all of his life, and is helping us tap into his brilliant brain the best we can in his golden years. Good stuff!
Schutzhund: Theory and Training Methods May 23, 2007
Whether novice or experienced trainer, anyone who desires to learn what Schutzhund is about - get this book! It identifies the short comings of the old school methods of training with objective, rational and real world proof - and this book opened my eyes. It is a pleasure to read and includes several photographs that pictorially represent what the author is discussing. It demonstrates the theory behind the methods of training as well as establishing objectives in training to accomplish the goals desired in formats that work.
