 great book , incredible pictures July 23, 2008
I am a dog trainer, and my clients love this book, have had two copies liberated. The pictures explaining the steps are wonderful. Great book, will buy another copy for clients. (This is a tricks only book, it is not about dog training classic commands, or raising a puppy or anything but tricks, other reviewers seem to miss that point.)If you can teach all 25 tricks, then you are a great trainer and your dog is having a lot of fun.
its fun to give my clients the book and see what they choose to train,, I get surprized all of the time.
a timeless classic of a book, buy a copy.
 If you like wasting time then its a good buy July 18, 2007

It has so few tricks, I mean, 25?! Any other training book comes with so much more for around the same price! The Idiot's guide to Dog tricks has much more interesting, easy to learn tricks. My Smart Puppy is a great read too.
Clear and Concise May 7, 2006
I really enjoy using this book to train my dog. He already knows the basic commands including shake, spin, and roll over. The format of this book is clear and concise and the illustrations/pictures are excellent guides to training your dog the new trick. Although most of the tricks are quite rudimentary and you will find them taught in most other books, I just like the crisp editing of this particular one.
Excellant for children July 10, 2001

I bought this book for my 8 yr. old son to help him with his birthday present, his 1st puppy!! The book is wonderfully illustrated with very simple instructions. I would recommend this book for anyone at any age.
Well put, good advice April 18, 2001

If you are considering buying this book do it! The tricks are easy to teach and the problem section on each one is very helpful. It even give some of the more traditional hand signals to teach your dog. It also explain when and how to cue and reward the dog. Downside, food motivation only but if you are a good trainer you may find other motivators that'll work with your dog. Excellent pics. Recomended for all those wanting to train/play with their dogs and show-off with their friends.
