5.0 out of 5 starsThis is the best ferret book I've ever seen!
By A Customer on August 27, 1998
Format: Paperback
This is absolutely THE BEST ferret book I have ever seen. It is a wonderful training guide and tells you exactly how to live with a pet ferret on a day-to-day basis. Not only do you get practical advice on litter training, handling, walking your ferret on a leash, food and housing, etc, there are great sections that give you step-by-step information on training techniques. I like the chapter on teaching your ferret to come when he's called by using a squeaky toy. The authors tell you exactly how to go about this, step by step. And it works! The chapter on traveling with your ferret is wonderful-- all the things you would never think about are covered. Best of all, the chapter on Ferret Proofing your house or apartment is a life saver for ferrets. You have to read it! As an added bonus, there are about 80 colored photos that range from those cute shots we ferret owners expect, to details that show you what to do in each chapter. If you're a first time ferret owner, YOU NEED THIS BOOK. If you're an experienced owner, it's still great to have-- you might find a number of things that you hadn't thought about before. As I said before, this is THE BEST ferret book I've ever seen for telling an owner how to live with their pet.

5.0 out of 5 starsOne of the Best
By J. Pearson on June 29, 2000
Format: Paperback
Training Your Pet Ferret is the only book I have read that really does go in depth about how to train your ferret. It is filled with useful tips and advice on how to raise a better pet. Each page in the book has information that you can use. I have used many of the tips in this book and they all have seemed to work out perfectly for me. I am very satisifed with this book. As it says in the authors note, this is not a general care guide. This is a training guide. The only thing that I thought was bad about this book is the ferret pictures. The ferrets pictured in this book always look sad and unhappy. That is the only drawback, other than that, this is a perfect book for a new ferret owner or a ferret owner that has owned ferrets for many years.

3.0 out of 5 starsexpected more
By Amazon Customer on May 26, 2015
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
A good book for beginners, but it wasn't what I was expecting. I had hoped the book might have more of a focus on training your ferret to do many tricks, but all it really covered was litter training, how to stop your ferret nipping, teaching your ferret to come when called, and how to teach your ferret to roll over. All useful tricks to teach your ferret, but I wanted more!

5.0 out of 5 starsThis book has a lot of great information in it
By RC70 on January 15, 2016

This book has a lot of great information in it! I haven't actually tried it out yet. Hopefully, it will work. I have one ferret that loves to bite me! :( I'm the only person he bites. I hope I can break him of that.

3.0 out of 5 starsOkay, but not for every ferret
By Poppins on October 23, 2005
Format: Paperback
My ferrets are either too smart or too stupid to be trained. The pictures were cute, but I couldn't find anything in it that I didn't already know from Ferrets for Dummies or Modern Ferret magazine. I read it once and gave it to the local humane society's library.

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat book even for me
By DVDaholic on October 2, 2014
Format: Paperback
Great book even for me. 20 years ago I owned many & operated a "half-way" house for them. Taking in unwanted ferrets, caring for them, then placing them in approiate homes. But having taken in mostly adults, I have little experience raising kits. This book could scare off potential owners because it's very detailed (almost too much), but if it does then those are the ones that shouldn't own a ferret to begin with. They are a true joy, but a lot of work!
