 Rating:  - Stilwell Rocks!In all my years of dog ownership, Victoria Stilwell is the trainer that has taught me the easiest, gentlest way to train my dogs. This first book is a must read especially for first time dog owners who want their dogs to be happy, confident and obedient. I can't wait for subsequent books! Rating: - Very InformativeThis is a great book. The only thing is I wish she had a section on how to train a miniture/toy dog. Overall one of the best I read so far. Rating: - It's Me Or The DogI found this product to have exactly what I was looking for. It is a easy and fun read. Rating: - A dog genius I have never been so pleased with a how-to book as with this one. After two dogs when we were younger, I remember all the trials and tribulations with raising them. And they were smart toy poodles! With each page, I could see how we were doing something exactly wrong-lots of yelling, praising at the wrong time, etc. I have seen Victoria on her TV show, and she is just marvelous. It is amazing how quickly a problem goes away when her guidelines are followed. A must-see for all dog owners. Rating: - Victoria Stillwell's bookGreat book. Good, loving advice for dog lovers. I have enjoyed watching the different shows that the author host and I think that she is wonderful. easy to follow advice. My dog and I have enjoyed the time that we have spent together training and I think that he is the greatest American dog. |
