The premier manual on this subject November 25, 1998 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
Although the overall concept of this manual is intended to integrate the three phases of Schutzhund....obedience, tracking and protection.....and as the authors' intent I am certain is to maintain that unity, yet I feel the area of obedience techniques described can stand on it's own by furnishing the seasoned or novice handler/trainer of prey driven canines an alternate and highly inducive effective means of achieving upbeat obedience compliance through a stress free and fun approach....especially effective in dealing with even the most dominant members of the working breeds (Dobermans, GSD, Rottweilers, and the Belgian herding shepherds to mention only a few)..... a "must read training manual" for molding an obedience compliant character within prey driven canines even if protection and bite work is not part of your present training repertoire
Excellent introduction to dog training, not just schutzhund. April 24, 1998 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
One of the better dog training books in that addresses the handler's responsibilities to "read" the dog and to distinguish between the dog and the handler's ego. This book also has a nice section on puppy selection. Overall, well written, thoughtful, and sensible.
The BEST you will find August 28, 1997 5 out of 7 found this review helpful
This little book will inform the entry level hobbiestand enlighten the die hard trainer. If you want your dog to reach his potential this book will guide you and your beast to that point. The only thing I can say is if Schutzhund is what you are looking for you have found it with this book
