 Less hokey and way more useful than other books out there! February 21, 2006

After adopting a less than perfect young-adult dog of unknown heritage and environment (so adorably scruffy with just a little bit of rottenness!) from the MSPCA a few months ago, I decided to research the latest dog training theories at the library. I LOVE Karen Pryor, Trish McConnell, and the Monks of New Skete, and just wanted to build on their theories with any other new ideas. Unfortunately, it is very easy to find books by people who call themselves authorities but who have some seriously wacky ideas. I liked this one enough to order it from Amazon! Very common sensical in nature with some fun stuff to keep any dog owner entertained. Bert is a super fast learner, which makes this book even more fun. Good luck and remember to have a good time!
Gerilyn is a genius when it comes to dog training! October 12, 2005

I got this book the other day. I have taken classes with my Pug at Canine University. Gerilyn really knows her stuff, unfortunately she can't live with my dog and I, so I got this book as a reference for when we need a little 'help' with our behavior.
Great book! Tricks are made easy! April 11, 2005

This book makes tricks easy to teach your dog, after one day the puppy can now roll on to her back when commanded! This is an awesome book! This book is useful for anyone wanting to have fun with their dog, and the dog will have fun too!
Very useful for both tricks and behavioral problems September 30, 2004

I initially bought this book for teaching my dog tricks, but then I discovered that almost half of the book is devoted to how to turn your rambunctious puppy into a well-behaved dog. Gerilyn's methods are all positive reinforcement and she promotes clicker training, which I think is great. Anyways this book has become my bible, both for teaching my dog new tricks and to solve any behavioral problems that crop up now and then.
Great Book!!! January 1, 2004

I got this book for my new dog and it is wonderful. I have never heard of clicker training before and this book explained it wonderfully. I got a clicker and my dog is loving the training(so am I) (we are doing kindergarten tricks)and she has learned a lot. I have already looked at the advanced tricks and can't wait to get there. The author puts everything in an easy format so it is easy to learn and fun for all ages with their dogs. The tricks are workable(at least they are for me and my dog)with the methods explained and of course fun is stressed throughout the book and it is fun.
