Incredible book, March 5, 2011
Reviewer: Trudie
As it says on the jacket, 'This is the book your dog wants you to read!'
It is a book you will read and consult over and over again.
 
Great read!, January 31, 2011
Reviewer: Kathy Fischer
This book is difficult to put down. Susan keeps you captivated reading about her dog Buzz and all the training they experience together. Also, sprinkled throughout the book are little 'recipes' of instructions for very fun and motivating games you can play with your dog. Her story about Buzz is also interlaced with lots of very good training tips! I'm getting ready for my second time through the book - this time to skim the story more, and pay more attention to the training tips!
 
You'll read and re-read this book!!, December 29, 2008
Reviewer: E Spencer
I adore this book, my copy has so many pages tabbed, high-lighted and written in because I read and re-read it constantly, I actually carry it around in my training bag!! I followed Susan's story of her puppy Buzz and cried I was laughing so hard. Anyone with a crazy driven dog will love it. I have now started two puppies using the path outlined in her book and I recommend it to all my agility friends. It has her 2X2 weave method in the back which is a valuable assest as well. Susan Garrett is one of the best trainers and to me this book is gold!
