Don't buy this book! - Rated
It really is the most stupid and infuriating book I've ever tried to read. The way it is set out is the worst thing, with bits of information scattered across the page in a confusing way, and no apparent structure to the order things are written. Information on the same things will appear a few times over the course of the book under several titles; for example in the training section it shows you how to stop pulling on the lead, and then again in the section on how to stop bad habits. The index doesn't help either; I have a cat and was looking for info on how to stop them chasing eachother; 'cats' or 'other animals' is not listed in the index, but by scanning the whole book I managed to find a couple of bits of info on it. The instructions on how to train are ludicrously detailed; it wont say 'stand in front of your dog' but will give about 5 instructions to tell you how to do that - so it's like 'stand facing the dog, put your right leg forward, move your right leg to the side, put a treat in your left hand and move it in an L shape'... It really is so annoying!!
Ok but not great - Rated
The Title of this book would make you think it the one to go for but don't be fooled.
It isn't. The book would be perfect for all those new puppies out there that are perfect and all they need is to learn to sit ect but the sad truth is that very rarely do you find a puppy that is perfect and thefore this book gives you little help.
While some of the techinques they use in the book are proven and well know there is precious little information to help you if those techinques do not work as well as they are shown in the book.
Therefore i found this book a waste of time training my dog and eventually stopped using it and went to a different training book with a bit more choose in training techinques.
A very helpfull book - Rated
