The Amazon Store at MillionDollarPetPix.com ( In association with Amazon.com )The Only Dog Tricks Book You'll Ever Need: Impress Friends, Family--and Other Dogs! - TricksThis is a very good book. It has may good points about tricks and teaching your dog. Rating: - Great BookThis was a great book. Easy to follow steps. Needs more pictures. A DVD to go along with it would be better. Rating: - my first dog bookFor me this book was very helpful..about 5 or so months ago our family came accross a lost puppy so we tried to find her owners but couldnt...I knew we couldnt just give her up so we addopted her and I set myself out to raise her right. It was hard looking for a good book because I've never owned a dog and i dont know the basics...but after looking long and hard I decided I'd go with this...this book is truely helpfull the book doesnt just show you how to train your dog but how to raise her from the roots like potty training and dicipline. To me its not just a trick book its a helpful tool in you and your dogs life. Rating: - Certainly worth the readI bought this book to train my two year old Jack Russell. The author uses repeated training methods that are easy understand and most were simple enough for my dog to learn when I would execute them properly. Since my dog is very trainable by nature most of the tricks were worth the effort. The book offers easy to very difficult tricks which is helpful for the novice dog handler. While reading toward the end of the book I began to feel inadequate since I knew my dog wouldn't ever begin to work through the show stopping tricks that might be appropriate for a circus act. All in all I recommend buying this book if you'd like a handbook type reference to train you dog in a humane manner. Rating: - Tricks and treatsAlthough the title accentuates tricks, this is a very good introduction to positive reinforcement dog training. The "ten keys to training success" in the first chapter are the ten commandments of basic dog obedience training. The first four chapters deal with the essentials of preparing yourself and your dog for training, the whys and wherefores of dog training, and the philosophy of treats and fun that make training a pleasure for both handler and dog. The fifth chapter deals with the basics that every dog needs to know before trick training. Then the fun really begins in the chapters about the tricks themselves with clear instructions on how to perform them. The last two chapters talk about other activities that dogs enjoy. This is not just a trick training book. It is an excellent overall dog training book, clearly written, easy to read, light hearted and fun. I recommend it to anyone who really wants to enjoy his or her dogs and help them be great, well-behaved companions.
