Covering all aspects of dog training

Easy to read information. This book cover all aspects of dog training in a way anyone can understand. I beileve any person owning a dog should have a copy of this excellent work. From puppy to utility all is explained clearly. The book covers handlers errors and some situation that can arise during training. I think this situations could have been explained in more detail, other than that, this book is great! It even includes an appendix about jump construction. Really is a great book.

A most readable training book

Note:The authors of the book are Thomas Knott with Dolores Coope

A very definitve expert book

I knew Thomas Knott for 8 years. We worked in the same area in Curtis Bay MD. I can attest this man knows his dogs from top to bottom and I would trust anything he says to be gospel.
