5 out of 5 stars Understand your puppy BEFORE you own him   July 19, 2001
4 out of 4 found this review helpful

This book is incredible!! The Monks tell you what to expect from day one and how to proceed at every turn. This book is a must if you plan to own a puppy - but make sure you read it cover to cover BEFORE you get a puppy! It will inform you, entertain you, and help you to understand your puppy in a way you never thought possible. Get inside your puppy's mind to understand how he thinks and why he does the things he does. The Monks share their knowledge with you, learned from years of raising shepherd pups. Their methods are tried and true!


5 out of 5 stars Best dog training book ever   July 16, 2001

I have read many books in the preparation for my Pomeranian puppy in the hopes of learning something about humane training. Not only has this book taught me those things, but has further opened my mind about dogs. Mostly this book has prepared me for training ME, not the dog!

This book will give you the insight and understanding you need to properly understand (and train) you dog. Incidentally, things are going quite well!

I used this book to train my basset hounds, and it worked well!


5 out of 5 stars Must read for anyone buying a dog   June 26, 2001

This book teaches the reader how to train a puppy to be a great dog. No rolled up newspapers here! If you want your dog to be your best friend, this is the book for you.


4 out of 5 stars Good book, but need to get their other one also   June 21, 2001
3 out of 4 found this review helpful

This book was required reading from our breeder. We are anxiously waiting to bring our puppy home. The book tries to give you a dog's point of view. Their training techniques seem easy to follow and if followed correctly will lead to a well-behaved dog. There is a lot of reference to their first book, "How to be your dog's best friend". As a first time dog owner, it is necessary to have both books to fully grasp the monks principles. I read the book once as if it was a novel and the second time, took out my highlighter to mark important points. I recommend both books for a novice dog owner.
