Summary: I don't advocate jerking a choke collar so wasn't impressed
Review: I really liked the format of this book and how it breaks up the reasons why a dog could be misbehaving. However, I'm not one to advocate jerking a choke collar because I believe there are less violent methods of correction--they do indicate hitting is bad. A better read would be Catch Your Dog Doing Something Right, or Reading the Dog's Mind, or any Stanley Coren book.

Summary: indispensable guide for all breeds and all problems
Review: This text helps you identify your dogs personality type and then work on specific problems according to his/her needs. This book emphasizes reconditioning as well as introductory training. It makes use of various tools such as the choke collar, shake can, and lead. I have had good success with this book with cocker spaniels to great danes. I have had timid to aggressive dogs. These tips for reconditioning focus on on-lead techniques but not exclusively. The topics in this book that I have used are: housebreaking, barking, biting, fence fighting, and carpography. This text is the one that I refer to over and over again throughout my dogs lives. When you have 3 great danes that are siblings raised entirely without a mother to guide them, you need help to guide you and this book has it all.
