A must have for anyone with a dog July 9, 2007

This book saved my relationship with my two "kids" - it is written in language that is very easy to understand and presents principles in a way that anyone can appreciate and practice. I believe that reading this book taught me how to live with and relate to my four legged family in a way that truly allows us to live together in a harmony that we had not known previously and cherish every day since. Highly recommended for anyone who has a canine companion, whether it is a new relationship or one that has gone on for a while but has become a strain for any member of the family.
Get Double Pleasure from this book! June 12, 2007

I enjoyed this practical little booklet, but it is twice as useful and entertaining if you read it aloud and substitute the word "man" [or a man's name] for the word "dog" [or a dog's name]. I gave it to my sister when she adopted one of my foster dogs, and we had a jolly and educational time reading it "both ways". Anything by Patricia McConnell is a "must-read" for those of us who love interaction with our dogs!
Great book, Great author May 27, 2007

My husband and I really found this little book helpful. We've also given it as a gift to family and friends who have dogs. It's info I believe every dog owner should find useful. Patricia McConnell writes in a very practical way, and her understanding for, and kindness toward dogs are between all the lines. Don't miss it. It's short, but well worth the price. (Her other books are very good, too.)
 Somewhat Helpful Booklet May 12, 2007

There is definitely some helpful tips in this little booklet on how to convey to your canine companions that you are the leader of their family pack, but most of it was information I'd already come across in other puppy rearing/dog training books. The information was simple and to the point, so if all you want to know about is how to be the leader, then this book is for you. I think I would have liked this book much better, however, if there had been a more thorough discussion of what's going on in a dog's mind in respect to what they're looking for in a leader, how to tell if your dog is truly trying to lead you (and not just taking advantage of a leadership void), etc. When ordering this book, I hadn't paid any attention to how many pages it contains, so I was expecting more.
