Customer Reviews

A must have

This book is full of clever tips that made housebreaking very effective. We used the tip on teaching our dog to ring the bell when she needs to go out. I also appreciated the section on cleaning up messes to prevent future problems. It is an easy to read book full of useful information.

Dog psychology appropriately utilized to offer great ideas.

Carr & Davis are obviously "dog-knowledgable" and offer many details to their basic three step training process. I especially liked their attempts to break myths such as rubbing a dog's nose in it's "mistake" will let the dog know what is not consider proper dog behavior. Also, they help explain such behaviors as to why dogs sometimes piddle when excited or when their owner comes in the house to greet them. I wish I had read this book before I attempted to housetrain my own dogs!
