Editorial Reviews for Good Owners, Great Dogs
|
Renowned dog trainers Brian Kilcommons and Sarah Wilson share their knowledge and skill gained in over twenty-five years experience, focusing on the two areas of most concern to dog owners: effectively changing unwanted behavior and preventing bad behavior with methods that are fun, that work, and make the dog even more loyal to its master. The key ingredient is becoming a good owner, someone who knows how to communicate with patience, praise, and clarity. With this in mind, GOOD OWNERS, GREAT DOGS trains you. As no other dog book has, it teaches you to read canine body language and to give your pet commands with the help of wonderful instructional photographs. With specific tips on housebreaking, food stealing, barking, aggression, and a host of other issues, GOOD OWNERS GREAT DOGS will show you how to give guidance that leads to years of loving, trouble-free companionship.

Summary: The ONLY dog training book!
Comment: I can only say this is a great book! The only one I use. I thought I knew how to train a dog then realized my first one was mostly trained by my whole family. I REALLY needed this book & it was very helpful. I always refer to it. Very highly recommended.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great help for new dog owners!!
Comment: This book is really helpful and extremely easy to follow. I couldn't have trained without it! So many useful tips and ideas. I keep this book out on the counter at all times and refer to it often!

Summary: What a great book - & I don't even have a dog yet!
Comment: My family and I (hopefully) will be adopting a Golden Retriever puppy in a few months. This book was recommended to me by my sister-in-law and the Golden breeder, and what a GREAT book! I'm in my second reading because the tips for preparing for a puppy, training, bonding, and having an all-around wonderful companion are numerous, but easy to understand and just plain common sense. I'll probably read it another 2 or 3 times before the puppy arrives! I want to be ready, and I want my husband and kids to be ready, and this is definitely a book that will get us there! For potential Golden Retriever owners, I also recommend "Golden Retrievers for Dummies" for more easy to understand, fun info that's breed specific.

Summary: Good Owners, Great Dogs - New Puppy? A must read.
Comment: Easy to follow/read. Wether or not you are a first time owner, it is a great reference and a reminder of what to do and not to do. I enjoyed reading it and definitely found it helpful with our new puppy.
Customer Rating:
Summary: don't get a dog without reading this first
Comment: A comprehensive dog owners manual! I read through this manual before getting our first dog last week and it proved to be invaluable. We have followed it's instructions to a "t" and our puppy is house trained in one week with no accidents. She sleeps through the night (and has since day 1) in her crate and is already learning simple commands. The book hits home the need to have a schedule, be consistent, and be aware of your tone of voice. Excellent purchase!
