This book is a good book to trouble shoot your dogs issues, but not very indepth, it does cover a wide range of problems but none particularly in depth. It's a good book for the general dog owner, but i feel could have covered each subject in more detail. It also doesn't always tell you what to do about the problem once you've found it. This book covers a quantity of problems, but lacks quality, i'd like to know more abbout each problem rather than skimming the surface and moving on the the next topic. Although this book is a good introduction to dog psychology type of subject matter and i would advise it for anyone who feels that standard training books are becoming repetitive, and wants a book that is more detailed in the reasons rather than just the cure.
Very useful and informative book April 5, 2006
This book was recommended to me by a freind, and once I had brought it, I couldn't put it down. It was amazing how useful the facts and techniques are. A lot of my freinds who have dogs have silly little problems with the dogs behaviour that are covered in this book. The only problem that I had was I wanted to tackle ALL my dogs problems at once... but the book does recomend only 1 or 2 problems at a time. I don't know what I would have done without this books help & encouraging tips. If you have a troublesome pooch - this book is definatly for you.

When reading this book you could be reading about your own dog, your friend's dog, your parent's old dog, or that dog up the road that really barks when you walk by. Fisher has caught them all to a tee. My only criticism was that it was maybe not practical enough, but it was certainly enlightening and educational. Both my colleague & I said after reading it, we now know why we have being doing it all wrong for all these years!

Read this book and you will understand and love your dog even more. I have bought so many copies and loaned them to other doggie people never to see the book again, so be warned, if you buy it, DON'T lend it, just recommend it!
