This is a great book if you have your dog in conformation and obedience.

I am an absolute beginner with registered dogs and training for the show ring, but I am experienced at training household companion dogs to be well mannered. It's a little bit difficult for me to keep track of when which ring is being addressed. I am not yet familiar with the vocabulary used, and the glossary is limited. However, I appreciate the author's candid manner of helping me to understand the level of perfection required to succeed in vs. excel in either ring. I will come back to this book after finishing The Winning Edge by George G. Alston and Connie Vanacore, and The Absolute Beginner's guide to Showing Your Dog

we are learning a lot from this book that we did not previously know. i have trained dogs before but never for two rings.
Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2006
I've trained many, many dogs using the methods described in this book with great results. The methods are not 'purely positive' or 'clicker training' but they really work, dogs enjoy learning with these methods, they learn quickly, and the occasional correction is done so the dog thinks he's correcting himself for an error, and does not see the handler as the source of correction. There are no 'harsh' or 'cruel' corrections, so don't get the wrong impression. Best of all, the methods work great even if you don't have a 'typical obedience breed' like a Sheltie or Golden.

Even if you never plan on competing in obedience or conformation, this book is well worth reading. It outlines training methods to use to gain attention, animate the dog, improve the dog's attitude, and make working with your dog fun and enjoyable. There are sections on conformation handling and training, and obedience handling from the very basics up through utility exercises. The obedience sections are divided into what is needed to earn a qualifying score and what is needed to earn class or trial placements, so you can work according to your wants and expectations. Instructions are clearly illustrated and easy to follow. This is one of my favorite training books and one I refer to often.

Good book.
Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2000
We found this book (although now out of print) to be informative, and containing excellent tips on training your dog for competition. The illustrations are excellent, and a real source of entertainment for the reader.
