Essential Reading for students of dog behaviour - By: J. A. Macdonald, 07 Oct 2008 
This book is on the reading list for Compass Education & Training, it's packed with easy to read quality information. A must for any dog owner.
good but not great - By: sandy, 05 Aug 2008 
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 & moving on the the next topic. Although this book is a good introduction to dog psychology type of subject matter & i would advise it for anyone who feels that standard training books are becoming repetitive, & wants a book that is more detailed in the reasons rather than just the cure.
Very useful and informative book - By: chris aylett, 05 Apr 2006 This book was recommended to me by a freind, & once I had brought it, I couldn't put it down. It was amazing how useful the facts & 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.
Touching, truthful and fun - By: , 29 Apr 2002 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 reallly barks when you walk by. Fisher has caught them alll to a tee. My only criticism was that it was maybe not practical enough, but it was certainly enlightening & educational. Both my colleague & I said after reading it, we now know why we have being doing it alll wrong for alll these years!
Essential for all dog owners - By: , 22 Jul 2001 Read this book & you will understand & love your dog even more. I have bought so many copies & 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!
