The book, which features 45 drawings, was previously published at $27.50.

the order came quickly and was exactly what i ordered, Very good condition no complaints here. Would buy from them again.

I have no familiarity with who the author is, but am familiar with Carol Lea Benjamin's "MOTHER KNOWS BEST" which I've loved for 12+ years. I bought this book in 2006 when we got our most recent puppy. We love the book! It is SO cute, and we have had such fun teaching our young dog many of the tricks in the book. There is nothing inhumane or cruel that we could see in the techniques. In fact, our Puppy Kindergarten teacher was teaching some of the same tricks the same way. Highly Recommended! Lots of fun. And we bought a few copies as gifts for friends of ours who've added new dogs to their families recently. Wonderful book!

Written by a very old trainer with the old "make your dog do it or else" attitude. What fun is this for the dog?
Motivational training has come a long way in the past 30 years, but this author has chosen to totally ignore new and more humane methods of dog training.
If you used some of these training "tricks" in modern obedience classes, you'd be asked to leave the class - or else they'd call the cops on you.
Cruel training methods and a lot of bad advice, all in one book. What a bargain!

Sorry, this book is total garbage. It was written as a cutsie atempt to package old training techs. that didn't work very well in a new shiny package to line the author's pocket.
If you've attended *one* basic obedience class anywhere, you know more than the author - save you money, there are tons of good books about dog tricks. This is not one of them, however!

Great, a no talent AKC judge whose claim to fame is getting pets ( not his ) into the movies thinks he can train dogs. Well, he can't, and that's pretty obvious from his crappy writing.

Save yourself some money and skip this one!
