5 out of 5 stars This is the book I buy for all my friends   January 10, 1999
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I train my own dogs for AKC obedience and my friends frequently ask me for help with their pets. This is the book I give them first. It's clear, amusing, practical and Brian really cares about you and your dog. Make this training book the first one on your pet's shelf.


5 out of 5 stars This book is just what I was looking for.   November 17, 1998
Brian Kilcommon's book Good Owners Great Dogs has come to my rescue. The language is clear and straight forward. He helps the reader to understand what is going through the dogs mind as we stand yelling at them to come to us. The instructions on how to teach commands from the simple to the more complex are so clear it is difficult not to get it right. He also helps us understand the proper use of voice tone and hand signals and collars ( I learned the way I was using the choke chain could have severly injured my dogs) and makes it clear change won't happen overnight. Not for us or the dog. His tips on feeding, grooming, play toys etc., etc are all helpfull. I saw a change in my dogs the next day. The only information it is missing is how to train two dogs at the same time to walk beside you.


5 out of 5 stars Thank you Brian Kilcommons !!!   November 6, 1998
This book is "Slap your head simple!". Finally, I understand why my dog does what he does and how and why I confuse him. My once crazy dog is now calm (well calmer) and well-behaved. We are both happier.


5 out of 5 stars Yeah, what they said. :-)   August 28, 1998
A well-written, entertaining book, with excellent training advice-- even long-time dog owners might pick up something new. Highly recommended.


5 out of 5 stars The most complete and easy to read dog training book ever!   August 11, 1998
This book trained me as well as my dog!
