5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book for First Time Puppy Owners., April 3, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Training Your Dog (101 Essential Tips) (Paperback)

I bought this book when I got my first Puppy and it is great tool to help a new owner through the first few months of housebreaking and training. Very readable and to the point. Great value too- a lot of book for your buck!

2.0 out of 5 stars Was NOT Impressed!, April 13, 2000

Tiffany Weaver - See all my reviews

This review is from: Training Your Dog (101 Essential Tips) (Paperback)

I was really not impressed with this book at all. I just got a new puppy and was eager to read it. It was VERY short, and I felt as if I was in third grade again, i.e. the book DOES tell you about howling. It says to leave the dog with a favorite treat, or something that you have rubbed on your hands. GIVE ME A BREAK! If you like short books (I read it in 15 minutes) than this is the book for you. I would only recommend getting this if you have another book to accompany it. The price was right and I keep it for a quick reference...

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Quick Reference, November 29, 2000

This review is from: Training Your Dog (101 Essential Tips) (Paperback)

This small, well-illustrated and attractive book is a great quick-reference guide to training your dog or puppy. I found this book to be wonderful to have on hand for children and 1st-time dog owners. It is not particularly for the "old pro" at dog raising, but I still found it useful. It is especially great to give to the spouse who doesn't think having a puppy a good idea (and who won't take the time to read a more involved book), or to the child who is eager to raise your dog but doesn't have the first idea how to go about it. As in ALL DK books, WELL DONE!
