Discriptive, humane, and logical ways to train your dog.

This book is a book for anyone who wants a great, loving dog, that is well trained. It explained how to teach your dog the easiest of tasks, like the sit, come, stay, and many more. One option this book had that many other dog training books don't have is a complete chapter on what to play with your dog, and an advanced training section. If you want a dog, that is reliable, good, and intelligent this book is great to read. I did find some of the ways to train your dog physcological, but in the end, it made a ton of sense, and made you think, "Why didn't I think of that?" The illistrations also made it even more understanding, because they showed you what the book ment if you didn't quite understand a segment. Truly, this book is an excellent book.

A wonderful book on teaching basic house manners to your dog. I liked it as it was written very simply and could be understood by everyone. This is an excellent resource for breeders to include in puppy packets. Plus the drawings are extremely cute.
