  • If you have a dog/dogs this is your book!

    Dog language is so different from human language. So many time we think and say one thing and the dog hears and thinks something completely different. When this happens we get flusterated because the dog does not follow our instructions and may even act in a behavior that makes up upset. We do not know how to get our point across to the dog nor know how to stop the annoying behavior our dog has gotten go at. This book has your answers. These solutions work if we follow the instructions and are determined to follow through. There is no need to feel flusterated when you have an answer. To be able to see what we are actually saying in dog language, no wonder the dog acted as he did. Well worth every dime!!!!

  • Dog training for dummies

    I have a 10 year old Jack Russel. Since he is getting old, I am planning on getting a new pal. I made a lot of mistakes last time, so I got this book early to gear up for training. I like that it gets me in the mode I need to prepare myself for the new journey. I always thought I had to be strict and regimented. Looks like patience is the most important part.

  • Good Stuff

    Needless to say Brandon knows his stuff. We’ve had many dogs in the past and found we were making mistakes in our training. We’ll change them up with the new pups and hopefully we’ll end up with even better trained dogs.

  • Exactly what I wanted ad expected

    The book is in new condition and was a good value. It's a book on dog training, not something I'd call "compelling" under any circumstances. It is what I expected and I'll put it to good use.
