A good read March 15, 2006 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
For a short read on German Shepards, I found this to be a pretty comprehensive book on the selection and training these dogs. Recommended for anyone contimplating buying one of these dogs and who have never owned one before.
Not too much new here September 21, 2005 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Standard type training steps that are found in most any training manual. Good discussion and history about the breed. I would buy this book again.
Too much hype March 11, 2005 14 out of 17 found this review helpful
This book might be good if you intend showing your dog and entering professional competitions. Even then it's not that great. It scratches the surface for all a lot of topics but nothing in detail. A lot of useless info. such as how odor spreads out from an animal or a human being.I have read Good Dogs Great Owners by Brian Kilcommons and The Art of raising a puppy by The Monks of New Skete. By far, those 2 books are much worth the money and time. These 2 books deserve 10 Stars without hesitation. In short, Training your GSD isn't worth the time or money. Get one of the other 2 [ preferably both ]which provide a lot of details,insight and step-by-step instructions. Good luck
great book February 23, 2004 18 out of 19 found this review helpful
I think this is a great source of info for training your GSD. It also deals with breed history and proper care, it's not all training. If I were to choose just one book to deal with all aspects of the GSD this would be it. Lots of pictures and lots of info. I also got the Boxer training book and was kind of expecting a lot of the information to overlap, but it didn't. It was written by a Boxer lover, not just some dog lover. I've had two German Shepherds in the past, and am about to get another and everything in the book seems spot on. I've got to correct a lot of mistakes I've made in the past after reading this book!
Best dog book I've ever read! February 11, 2003 17 out of 19 found this review helpful
Complete guide to buying and training a German Sheperd, or any other dog. More information then the average person wants but you get to pick and choose. Buying and early training sections are outstanding. This is the only dog book you need!
