The Amazon Store at MillionDollarPetPix.com ( In association with Amazon.com )Feeling Outnumbered? How to Manage and Enjoy Your Multi-Dog Household. - Simply amazing!Despite all my background and experience in training and behavior, I still found myself in real trouble with three dogs who all wanted to be in charge. After reading this and a couple other similiar books and consulting another trainer, I now have a happy dog household. The trainer echoed much of what was in this book and although it is fairly short and simple, it is what you need to change or avoid a problem situation. It is well worth the time and money. Rating:  - Another excellent McConnell/ London bookAn extremely helpful small book for those with more than one dog, in fact a must for multi-dog households. Clear, sound advice on key management strategies combined with common sense approaches to common problems. The book stresses the teaching of good manners and that is perhaps the most important tool we took from it. A chapter on managing two (or more) young puppies would have been a valuable addition. As it is the book assumes reasonably well trained adult dogs capable of learning group 'stays', for example. However, there is much to recommend this book including the humour. Rating: - Must Read This BookThis book is very helpful for managing a household with multiple dogs. The author gives specific advice as to how to handle dogs, while not ignoring the needs of the group. Rating: - VERY HELPFUL, VERY SPECIFIC IDEAS for training people & dogsThe author McConnell gets right to the heart of the matter: EVERY movement, EVERY word you say IS noticed by the dogs. She gives very specific ideas for changing OUR behavior in order to change THEIR behaviors. I have thousands of dog books (+ have read most of them!) and hers are the best, by far. Many authors add lots of "fluff" to make a longer books. IF YOU do not have time or inclination to read 100+ pages in order to resolve dog problems, read her books! Rating: - A Good IntroThis is a good place to start for those with multiple-dog households. It serves as a great consolidation of multi-dog topics from other books, many of which I have also read. The authors have done a great job of referencing the topics, so if you want to learn more, it is easy to pick out the longer book that most applies to that topic. I found it very helpful in teaching me how to train my dogs together (seperately), as well as defining what is play and when it's time to cool off. It's a good reference to have on hand when you just need a quick review of pack dynamics, and don't have the time to sift through a longer book for the information that you're looking for.
