Not in the same league as Cesar

Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2016

Verified Purchase

This book was OK, but not nearly as helpful as one by Cesar (the Dog Whisperer). I would have been disappointed if I had purchased it new, but it was a good price for a used copy.

Get this book if you get no other dog training tool!

Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 1999

Verified Purchase

Simple to use. No installation required. Just open and use! This book begins with a clean, simple overview of basic dog behaviors and how to work with them, not against them. What follows is an alphabetized collection of THE most practical information I have ever read and/or purchased. I'll be recommending this book to my vet for her office. A great choice for shelters, as well. If you have a mutt - this covers 'em all, no breed specific stuff.

Methods that are 30 years out of date

Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2003

What an appalling book! You should never, ever hit your dog. If your dog has a problem that serious, you should consult a professional trainer -- not listen to a book written by a woman whose training ideas are from the 1950s. These methods could also seriously injure or emotionally traumatize a small or sensitive dog.
Hitting, choking and slapping haven't been used by intelligent trainers for decades. There are other, gentler ways (like leash corrections or clicker training) of getting your dog to behave.

wow - pretty harsh

Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2001

I couldn't bring myself to use most of the techniques in this book on my puppy. Jerking a dog's neck hard with the leash, throwing water in his face and yanking him off his feet by the neck might sound harsher than they really are, but I simply don't want to do them. There are a few useful tips here, but the techniques that I did attempt just caused my dog to cry and run, and left me feeling absolutely horrible about myself. After reading about more positive techniques from authors like Paul Owens (The Dog Whisperer), I just can't see using any other approach but a positive, non-violent one. In a short time my dog has responded to positive training joyfully and is on her way to being a wonderfully well behaved dog. Most importantly, I love training her as much as she loves learning. Don't ignore your own sense of humanity- it's there for a good reason.

GREAT BOOK!

Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2010

This is a great book on dog training. I've read it cover to cover. I don't think some of the people making these comments about this book actually have read it. The book says very clearly to "use only as much force (if any) as necessary to change behavior, and stop as soon as the dog does what he should. Therefore it is perfectly clear you don't use force unless you must, in order to stop biting (or attacking)--problems most dogs don't have, so you don't need to use force. But I'm glad someone does address the problem of how to correct these serious problems--most books (except Koehler's book) duck the question.

These "reviewers" should go back and read this book, not just make their unfortunate comments. This is an outstandingly great book. Everyone should read it. They will learn a lot.

REAL Dog Book! (It's GREAT)

Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2010

This book is awesome! It is so clear and easy to follow. It helped us so much with both our dogs. Anyone who says it is cruel to give a dog a correction if it is needed is wrong. Dogs DO have to be corrected. Our two terriers snapped at the kids. We corrected them as the book told (with a smack on the nose) with a riding crop, and they learned not to in just one day. Without this, we would not have been able to keep them. Which is better, correcting a dog or taking him to the vet's to be killed?? This is by far the best book on dog training on the market.

WONDERFUL!
This book has the answers for how to peacefully co-exist with your dog(s).
Ms. Delano Condax hits the nail on the head with her practical approach to training your dog(s). I was looking to undo some bad habits and teach new commands as well and this book really covered how to do both. If you have a dog and you need a training book, my money is on this one! You won't be disappointed. My resuce dog has been able to build confidence and learn how to adapt to her new home and routine! THANK YOU!!!!
