Beautifully Illustrated Guide for the First-Time Dog Owner.

This book bills itself as "The easy-to-follow kind approach to training dogs of all ages." There are more than 350 color photographs to illustrate how to get your dog to heel, crate training your pet, lie down, sit, retrieving objects, playing with others, and down and stay, to name a few. Each step of the training process is illustrated. Solutions to a wide range of canine problems, from puppy mouthing nervousness, and food guarding to changing an older dog's unwanted habits are illustrated as well. This book also includes a section on how to choose a professional trainer.

Great guide for first time dog owners.

This book successfully guided my husband and I, first time dog owners, through all stages of adding a dog to our family. It offers advice on how to solve every problem we faced, and solved them conclusively. We found it indispensable. Although we had up to 7 dog training books that we had bought or taken out from the library, this was the one we always found the most helpful.

Great Book

This book is the best book on dog training I've seen sofar. The directions are clear, with very good pictures. The method is very dog and owner friendly. The introduction is very good, the explanations and the tips are very helpful. This is a great book, and I have recommended it to a couple of friends.

Wonderful illustrations!

This book is far easier to understand than many other training books I have seen. It really simplifies the whole training process with it's easy to understand descriptions and wonderful illustrations.
