Disappointing January 14, 2000 13 out of 51 found this review helpful
I purchased this book because of its good reviews, but could not have been more disappointed. In my opinion, there is little here for the advanced trainer.
Even my dog loves this book January 9, 2000 53 out of 54 found this review helpful
I'm one of those obsessive types. Before I got my dog I read tons of books about raising and training them. I only wish I had found this one first. Every other book I read focused on what I was doing and how I was doing it. Morgan Spector makes you understand that the key is in the dog -- which when you think about makes sense. Even though I have no intention of competing with her, I know that the most important things are being accomplished with the help of this book. Most obviously, she has been invited to visit my parents because her manners have improved so dramatically thanks to this book and its techniques. Don't hesitate -- if you aren't comfortable yelling at your dog, Morgan Spector is for you. By the way, you can theoretically clicker train anything, so this book can help you with recalcitrant cats, children, and husbands too.
This is the BEST training guide I have ever used. October 19, 1999 43 out of 45 found this review helpful
While I have read all the great reviews, this book still managed to exceed my high expectations. "Clicker Training for Obedience" provides clear, concise instructions. If you are even remotely interested in clicker training, you MUST buy this book. I have seen not only great success with my dog, but also a dog that looks forward to training. I cannot say enough good things about the "Clicker Training for Obedience".
The best obediance training book I've used. September 10, 1999 Mary Beam (Brookville, Ohio USA) 59 out of 59 found this review helpful
I live with and train Smooth Fox Terriers, considered by many to be one of the hardest breeds to train in obedience. Since I started using the methods suggested in this book, I've had tremendous success with my dogs. My oldest male, who earned his CD during my pre clicker training period, after much hard, frustrating work, learned "go out, sit" in 3 short, fun, easy lessons. And, he learned to love to retrieve his dumb bell, finding what others call the "forced retrieve" to be one of his favorite games. And, that is the key. Having fun while learning. The dog who has fun learning a behavior will carry that behavior over into daily life, and, for me and my dogs, Clicker Training for Obedience is helping us achieve just that. It helped me create a training program that is fun for us all. The presentation of each segment for training a behavior is such that a trainer new to training can follow along and achieve success. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in having a happy, well trained dog. Not just for competition, but for daily life as well.
Best training book I've ever read. May 3, 1999 mcalex@jps.net (Seattle, WA) 14 out of 15 found this review helpful
I haven't been able to put down Morgan's book since I bought it. It's simply the best training book -- of any discipline -- I've ever read. Amazingly precise and thorough. I honestly believe anyone would be able to train a dog for competition using this book.
