    I skimmed this book in a bookstore and it brought tears to my eyes.This book advocates abusive training methods. I was appalled at the horrible suggestions.I wish there was a ‘zero stars’ rating.Try Good Owners, Great Dogs or The Dog Whisperer instead.

    I bought this book because I recently adopted a rottweiler-lab mix puppy and I need all the help I can get. I thought this book looked like a good start. (I already have another, smaller, milder, gentler, female dog, and have trained her successfully). And I did find some good tips. But I was shocked by the author’s suggestion to hit a dog with: 1. the flat of your hand. 2. a large children’s book. 3. a “jump-bat” I thought those training methods went out with Descartes! I could never hit a dog, especially on the head, as she suggests. Those parts of the book made me literally sick to my stomach.

    As a professional trainer running a very large training school, I’m disappointed to see that these outdated and abusive methods are still out there. This writer still recommends hitting dogs, pushing their noses into messes, and she even recommends use of a “riding bat”, which she says is like a riding crop but “sturdier”. The proliferation of positive methods means that nobody should ever again feel they have no option but to hurt their dog and call it dog training. Please read “Positive Puppy Training Works” by Joel Walton, “The Power of Positive Dog Training” by Pat Miller, and other excellent books by more positive trainers. Dog training has really changed for the better since this dog was published! Becky Schultz, Certified Pet Dog Trainer

    This book is the exact opposite approach taken by most trainers today. I don’t approve of the methods suggested for corrections. There are many better, positive method training book available.

    What an appalling book! You should never, ever hit your dog. If your dog has a problem that serious, you should consult a professional trainer — not listen to a book written by a woman whose training ideas are from the 1950s. These methods could also seriously injure or emotionally traumatize a small or sensitive dog.Hitting, choking and slapping haven’t been used by intelligent trainers for decades. There are other, gentler ways (like leash corrections or clicker training) of getting your dog to behave.
