Great for dog owners and parents

This is a very accessible book--easy reading, concise (under 200 pages) and full of illustritive anecdotes. I found it a great resoruce for raising our GSD and there were some equally applicible insights on parenting my 7 year old, since the same principels work in both arenas--clarity, consistency, leadership, etc. Definitely a worthwhile read.

Well worth your time

I had the good fortune to take my pit bull Anubis to one of Mr Hansen's classes and have been a fan ever since. It is a lot of fun to watch the silly mistakes people make with kids ( & dogs), and realize that you would likely be doing the same thing without his advice. Some of the advice is so obvious you'll wonder why you never considered it this way before. Nothing short of a revelation!

the DOG trainers guide to PARENTING

Finding "the DOG trainers guide to PARENTING" while looking for a book to train my new puppy is the answer to my prayers. Other methods I've tried have been ineffective and left me feeling impotent as a parent. Mr. Hansen's approach involves none of the useless "psycho-babble" that is so prevelant in parenting books today. He makes the reader aware of the many different mistakes parents make but have no idea they are making. He very concretely lays out a road map for successful parenting through the use of his own life experiences and illustrates his points with examples from is interactions with dog owners that have come to him for help. As well as being helpful and informative, the book is very light-hearted, entertaining and easy to read.It doesn't matter how you feel about dogs, if you need help with becoming a better parent, this is the book to read. Positive changes were made in my home before I was even half-way through the book!

Refreshing and Effective

This little book packs a lot of emotional intelligence into a readable message. The focus is on building up kid's confidence and common sense by being consistent in your parenting. Using dog training as a parallel makes the points easier to understand and shows how we can avoid making common mistakes. It's helped me understand much more about being a positive presence in the lives of those I love.
