Review # 1 was written on 2016-02-18 00:00:00 Eldon Kochab It always disappoints me when a book goes to publishing with more than one or two spelling and grammar errors. That being said, Dr. Akenhead does a decent job explaining differences in training techniques and what has worked for him with positive reinforcement. He also makes it clear you don't have to agree with all of it, and are encouraged to research other methods. However, I did not like the email he received and repeated for us about a person who was suicidal because they dropped their dogs leash while he was on the porch, he ran into the road, got hit by a car, and died. Including the tragic email was unecessary to get the point across about using leashes and just made me feel awful.

Review # 2 was written on 2011-01-06 00:00:00 Jeffrey Meals Very thoughtfully written book- perhaps a bit too thoughtful. The first chapters might be too wordy for some people looking for a good training book, but the approaches are clearly written and thorough.
