 The ONLY dog training book! December 21, 2008
D. Guinto (Syracuse, NY United States)
I can only say this is a great book! The only one I use. I thought I knew how to train a dog then realized my first one was mostly trained by my whole family. I REALLY needed this book & it was very helpful. I always refer to it. Very highly recommended.
Great help for new dog owners!! November 3, 2008
Capri (Philadelphia, PA)
This book is really helpful and extremely easy to follow. I couldn't have trained without it! So many useful tips and ideas. I keep this book out on the counter at all times and refer to it often!
What a great book - & I don't even have a dog yet! October 13, 2008
Kim W. (NJ)
My family and I (hopefully) will be adopting a Golden Retriever puppy in a few months. This book was recommended to me by my sister-in-law and the Golden breeder, and what a GREAT book! I'm in my second reading because the tips for preparing for a puppy, training, bonding, and having an all-around wonderful companion are numerous, but easy to understand and just plain common sense. I'll probably read it another 2 or 3 times before the puppy arrives! I want to be ready, and I want my husband and kids to be ready, and this is definitely a book that will get us there! For potential Golden Retriever owners, I also recommend "Golden Retrievers for Dummies" for more easy to understand, fun info that's breed specific.
 Good Owners, Great Dogs - New Puppy? A must read. October 5, 2008
Anna Sabella (New York)
Easy to follow/read. Wether or not you are a first time owner, it is a great reference and a reminder of what to do and not to do. I enjoyed reading it and definitely found it helpful with our new puppy.
don't get a dog without reading this first September 2, 2008
L. Carr
A comprehensive dog owners manual! I read through this manual before getting our first dog last week and it proved to be invaluable. We have followed it's instructions to a "t" and our puppy is house trained in one week with no accidents. She sleeps through the night (and has since day 1) in her crate and is already learning simple commands. The book hits home the need to have a schedule, be consistent, and be aware of your tone of voice. Excellent purchase!
