Customer Reviews

Every dog owner should read this book!

Even if your pup's behavior isn't as "bad" as these dogs' behaviors are, every dog owner should read this book! It explains the positive way of training dogs to behave themselves. It tells you exactly how the thought process works for each trouble behavior the doctor encountered and the end result of the training of both dog and owner(s)! Excellent!

And another great dog book to add to your collection!

This is one impressive book! The stories make the book fun and easy to read, and the information is very helpful in understanding your own dog. Not a book to get if you're looking for help in training your dog, but definitely a book for those interested in understanding their pets.

A must if you're owned by your dog!

This book is a very entertaining way to learn dog behavior. There is plenty of valuable information about reading any dog's body language. It reads like a series of stories, rather than a clinical type book. I lose interest rapidly if the information reads like a text book. I saw my alpha male all through this book. I recommend it to anyone wanting a good book of dog stories packed with educational material about dealing with a dog who thinks he owns you!

Interesting!

I loved this book. It is really interesting. From those sweet stories you are able to get some tips and see how your dog behaves, therefore help yourself and your little friend in a difficult situation. If you haven't bought it, do so. You will love it!

Heartwarming, very informative read!

I have three dogs, all far from perfect, and this book gave me so many ideas to build on. I have tried some of Dr. Wright's techniques with my dogs and have experienced almost immediate results. He gives easy to understand treatment options in the form of wonderful, heartwarming stories. This book is a joy to read since it is not written in "how to" fashion. Dr. Wright seems so personable in his writing, it makes me want to tell him all about my dogs. I give this humorous, entertaining and informative book my highest recommendation.
