I bought this book a few weeks before we picked up our springer puppy because I had never owned a dog before and wanted to make sure I did everything right from the start.

This book was a great help, and helped me to understand some simple, yet effective, dog psychology (such as who walks through a door first, when you should feed them etc).

The book is easy to read and helped to give me some confidence when we first got our puppy. I've since passed it on to friends who have also found it useful.

Our dog is now 3 years old, and he's pretty well behaved (particularly for a Springer!), and I would put some of this down to this book as it was a great place to start.

This is a lovely little book full of nice colour pictures. If you are completely brand new to chicken keeping this book is a good starter for you - it was to me! You'll soon find though that you'll be looking for one with a bit more detail and specific information.

Although I kept chickens many years ago I found this book a mine of useful information. It is charmingly written, very easy to follow, I read it at one sitting. It covers all aspects (I found the cooking and storage sections a pleasant suprise) and although some things could have been covered in slightly more detail, this information is easily found in other sources.

Nice book with lots of photos. Unfortunately the much of the information with regard to photos did not mention the breed of birds shown. I would have liked to have more detail in the captions. Some of the specific breeds mentioned had no photo at all. I wasn't interested in the chapter on crafts.
My husband preferred this book to "The Right Way to Keep Chickens" by Virginia Shirt because it was easier to absorb and photo's are much better than drawings. He said it was a good book, I am hard to please!

This book is really good! It's the only puppy book I bought before getting my ridgeback puppy and after applying the principles that the book outlines he is an angel. He never chewed a thing and was toilet trained within 2 weeks. Stuffing kongs and cage training are fantastic ways to ensure your puppy is happy when alone and this book covers these and many more handy hints. Buy it today if you plan to get a puppy or dog for that matter!

This book is evidence that you can fool quite a lot of people quite a lot of the time. There is not a single original idea in it, and Fennel's beliefs arise out of an interpretation of wolf behaviour that is entirely false. If you want the relationship with your dog to be based on oppression and frustration then this is the book for you, otherwise read something else.

I bought this book after one of the two puppies I adopted was showing signs of agression when being lifted up. In a panic I ordered several dog training book and I have found this one the quickest to get into and easiest to find exactly what is needed. I found that it was most useful regarding the lead training section. The puppy with the agression didn't budge when hooked onto their lead but as the book recommends I waited her out and eventually she walked and we haven't looked back since.

For those who want to expand their knowledge and abilities with dog leadership skills this book provides valuable tools for achieving that goal. Every episode from Cesar Millan's first 3 series of 'The Dog Whisperer' is reviewed and analysed. This in depth analysis helps to make very real the method which Cesar uses.

Unlike 'dog training' Cesar and others who follow the 'pack system' focus on creating harmony and balance in our dogs. We use our dog's natural and hard wired instincts to create change which allow them to 'be themselves'. This method helps to meet our dogs needs rather than us just getting our needs met when we get love and affection from our dogs.

This book allows us to get a much deeper understanding of ... Read More:
