I bought this book as part of the anti-heathen kit for my sister's new puppy but I have use this book to help puppy train my dog. I really likethese books because it breaks everything down step by step and it makes it easy for novice trainers. I recommend this book to all my of clients with puppies that need training but they don't have the money to hire a trainer.

Want to teach your dog to get a beer from the fridge? Read this book! Breaks it down to minute steps and teaches you how to use positive reinforcement to get your pooch doing amazing things!

Good book. Excellent, reliable seller.

This book has some great tips, especially when it comes to get your dog to take a bath. When we first purchased our puppy, he didn't really like baths but after using some of the tips in this book, he likes them! Everything is well explained and it's a great book for beginning dog owners.
Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2001
A really good book, but as I said above, just two things wrong with it. First, it doesn't give any advice on what to do if your dog KNOWS what to do, but won't. Or if your dog doesn't learn using the method shown. Second, and I realize this isn't a huge problem, it just irritates me that almost the exact same book is published under the title 'Dog Tricks for Dummies'. That annoys me for some odd reason.

I love this book. The instructions are easy to understand and besides the basics, my dog can now chase her tail, play dead and catch a treat off her nose. She loves being the center of attention with her new tricks and we are working on more.

I borrowed this book from the library and decided I needed my own copy. I found on Amazon for only four dollars! Couldn't be happier!

The book is written nicely and great for beginners.
