| Much needed moral support, September 11, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Robin Madison |
| Just what I need to read sometimes, after a difficult class or an encounter with a difficult dog owner. Nicole's humor helps me take a step back, put it in perspective and laugh. She also helps me find my compassion when it starts to fade away. I especially appreciated the reminder that many of the training techniques we use with dogs - based in science - can be applied to our relationships with humans, as well. |

| An Absolute Must!, April 16, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Vicki Stafford |
I think sometimes because it's referred to as the 'dog training world', we forget it's the people at the other end that we need to pay attention too. The two most important lessons I learned from this book is that it's ok to set boundaries for yourself so that people know what your limits are. The second one is to have humor! Humanity is such a diverse league, and Nicole's book covers these personality types and how to word things just right so that everyone wins. If you read this book you, will learn new 'people skills' that won't only be effect in your dog training career but you will find yourself using them in other unrelated human interactions.
Thank you Nicole!

| This is an excellent book for learning about how to deal with dog owners. Her explanations of the different personality types were accurate and entertaining, and she gave good points on how to deal with each type. |
