OK but not great - By: P. Mueller, 10 Dec 2008 
After having watched Victoria Stilwell's TV series & being impressed by her no-nonsense approach to dog training I bought the book as part of our preparation before we adopted two dogs. It certainly offers some helpful tips but some areas are treated quite superficially. While not bad it might better be complimented by one or two other books, not to mention professional advice & training classes.
Really helpful! - By: Dot, 01 Dec 2008 
I found this book to be really helpful. It is split into very accessible sections but I have to admit that I read it cover to coverin one sitting! The pictures are lovely & the advice is really sound & I have put a lot of it into practice with our 10 week old puppy & it has had very positive results. Highly recommended.
Good tips - By: JES, 30 Sep 2008 Enjoyable read & informative, very good training tips but my dogs still a bit naughty, must be me!
Easy to dip into - By: Trickle Tree, 28 Jul 2008 I bought this book after one of the two puppies I adopted was showing signs of agression when being lifted up. In a panic I ordered several dog training book & I have found this one the quickest to get into & easiest to find exactly what is needed. I found that it was most useful regarding the lead training section. The puppy with the agression didn't budge when hooked onto their lead but as the book recommends I waited her out & eventually she walked & we haven't looked back since.
A disappointment - By: J. M. Skinner, 27 Jun 2008 
I was given this book for a birthday present, but was very disappointed with the content. There is a great deal of posturing, fluff & glamour but very little practical advice. Lots of 'I cured this dog' but very little of 'How'.
Great pictures, but very little else to commend it. Sorry.
