    A useful book for those who have never trained a dog before. Besides giving good directions, it also answers many questions like 'What if my dog won't stop barking?', and 'What's the difference between WAIT and STAY?'.

    This is an excellent book. In the first few pages, Sarah Hodgson gives a very simple and understandable explanation of dog behavior (they are not people...) and allows a reader to understand that dog owners can train their dogs to behave properly. I would recommend this book to 1) anyone who is thinking of getting a dog and 2) to dog owners who would like to have well-behaved companions.
