Customer Reviews

One of the best dog training books out there now.

A great book that gets you on your way to training a great to-be dog, with tips on almost all needed aspects of dog-training.

Excellent for understanding how to teach your dog manners.

This is an excellent book for the average person to understand about teaching their pet household manners so the dog is much more enjoyable for the family. Matthew Margolis has such understanding of the differences between dog personalities and how they need to be handled in teaching technique. He uses praise rather than submission - therefore the dog responds because he 'wants to please his master'. He makes the statement that it is the owners that are usually at fault for bad behavior in our animals as they don't understand how to take charge. There is no such thing as an untrainable dog!
