| We found this book to be extremely helpful. Originally, we bought the book because of retrival problems- the dog would not have anything to do with the dumbell. The earpinch method was not an option. After less than 3 weeks our dog is retriving the dumbell from a distance and over the jump, returning to front and waiting for the 'give' command. But since owning what is now referred to as our dog training 'bible' we are backing up and retraining some other areas such as off-leash heeling which has been an ongoing issue. I especially like the proofing sections to really see if the exercise was learned. |

| I find this to be a good all-around book for novice through utility; however, there were some sections where I wish they would have been a little more detailed in explaining how to train certain elements. |

| This book does an excellent job at explaining the different obedience exercises from Novice to Utility. The authors outline how to train each exercise, and offer different ways of training so you can pick the one that is best for your dog. It presents a balanced approach to training, using positive reincorcement, as well as corrections (but not an overwhelming amount). |
