If you enjoy hitting and dominating your beloved best friend, then you need to read this book. I only got to about page ten and all I had to read was how you should hit your dog, and the hand that feeds him should be the hand that hits....I was very disappointed...I suggest the Dog Whisperer...he is ALL about non violent training and living with your best friend. Not even one violent outburst needed. I have a very stubborn, adopted at 8 months, many issues here, 150 pound Rottie. He has an attitude of, I can't even think of a good comparison...but, the methods of the Dog Whisperer, and yoga has turned this dog around. He went from breaking 8 windows in my house to sitting calmly beside me while doing yoga. I swear to God! It was very easy too! If you want a copy of this Monk's book let me know...oh wait...I forgot that I threw it right away. I am glad that I bought the cheapest,used one I could find, and it wasn't even worth that much!

I bought the first edition back in '86 and raised an English Springer to the age of 13.
A great dog. Will get a westie next month, so I bought the up dated version. Everything you need to know about raising and training your pup is in this book.
Also I suggest their Puppy training book To go along with your Dogs Best Friend.

The Monks of New Skete make training and understanding your dog a simple, straight forward journey. They explain the need to not only train the dog but how important it is to listen as well. Respect on both parts of the relationship is paramount. The Monks have proven through the years that quiet confidence on the part of the owner wins both the heart and trust of man's best friend.
