informative but slightly impractical July 5, 2007

I love all of Patricia's books but this one didn't really help us. She gives a lot of information but ultimately says you can't fix the separation anxiety unless you have several weeks, even months, that you can stay home with your dog and work on this training.
 half of the book was missing June 27, 2007

I bought this book several months ago, but never got around to reading it until recently. I read pages 1-6 thinking "This is good information. I flipped the page only to have the pages start over at page 1-6. Because of the way that this book was constructedstaped together, pages 23-30 also repeated. Even worse is the fact that pages 7-22 were COMPLETELY MISSING. I am VERY disappointed.
 A fearless dog May 14, 2007

This book provides step by step advice on how to help your dog overcome her fears. Following this approach, my dog is doing so much better in thunder storms after just a couple of "training sessions." While there's still work to be done, by the end of the summer, I am confident that my dog will be fearlessly begging for treats when the next storm rolls in.
Great beginner's guide March 8, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is a great guide for learning the basics of how to counter-condition your anxious or fearful dog. It's short but concise, with clearly defined steps that are easy to follow. However, if you're looking for a really in-depth guide, or are already familiar with basic counter-conditioning, you would probably be better off with a more intensive guide. Still, for a quick refresher course or a foundation for future work, this booklet is great, and I do recommend it. (Plus it's cheap - what have you got to lose?)
fine, but I wanted more! February 19, 2007

I was disappointed in the fact that for the price of the book and shipping this was just a booklet. There could have been more detail and more examples to work out for the author--more situations or examples. I just wanted more information to help as we deal with our great pyrenese--one well raised since coming home at 8 weeks and one just rescued from a shelter at 10 months and having some fear issues; some crate issues and some mental baggage. Both dogs have a great personality dog #2 just needs to find it again....the book was helpful, I just wanted MORE!
