The Best Advice
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I love Patricia McConnell. She gives clear, concrete, easy tips to training your dog. Even our 7 year old had our 7 week old puppy sitting the first day he was home! I love that she lays it out in a 6 week process. You really just have to follow what she says and your dog responds. Consistency is key! Any book by Patricia is worth the money.
Love this book!

I really love this book. I like to give it to all my training clients so they have a great framework we can start with and something they can refer back to at any time. While I don't always use all of the methods in the book, I think it's important to get lots of different ideas together for success.
Excellent general training book.

Patricia McConnell knows dogs. This is an excellent training guide for those who are intent on training their dogs themselves without benefit of a good class (or who can't find a decent class to attend), and it's also a great adjunct for those who are working with a trainer. The book gives you an effective, realistic six week lesson plan and timeline, and is behaviorally solid (unlike the theories and methods of some currently trendy TV trainers).
Another fabulous book by Patricia McConnell
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Here is yet another fabulous book by Patricia McConnell and Aimee Moore. I am a reward-based professional dog trainer and have been using their new book, "Family Friendly Dog Training- A Six Week Program for You and Your Dog", as a supplement to my basic training program. The chapters are arranged so each chapter covers one week of a six week program. I can never cover as much material as I want in an hour class, and this book allows me to provide a more comprehensive program to my students. It is loaded with training tips and up-to-date training methods, making it a must have for the novice dog owner's library. Every professional dog trainer should be offering this book to their students. It will add value and quality to your training program. It's an easy and fun read for the pet owner, very affordable, and not lengthy, so I find all of my students can take the time to read it. I love how Patricia and Aimee describe their own challenges and experiences making the book enjoyable and personal. Patricia McConnell has been the most influential mentor in my career. I have learned so much through her books, videos and seminars, and have read her book "The Other End of the Leash" three times.
