 Quick start for clicking March 20, 2006

This book had a nice easy to use format. The reader was invited to
follow along with the full book, or find behaviors of interest, and begin working on those. Instructions were clear and simplified, making it easy to follow.
Clicker training makes training a fun game and is a great way to keep training positive. Training should be fun in order for people and for pets to thrive. The section suggesting tricks to teach gives lots of ideas to foster the spirit of fun that clicker training promotes.

Don't have to time to read a novel and hope to remember what you learned to apply it towards your dogs training? Good... because with this book you can read a few pages a day and teach your dog progressively in a few minutes! My German Shepherd has learned leaps and bounds (literally, lol) since we have begun clicker training with this book. This book is written with a task on the left page and an illustration on the right, most lessons are just those 2 pages, making it simple and straight forward, and soooo effective!

So far I have really enjoyed this book. I like the pictures. I think that the information in this book is great. My puppy is 4 months old and caught on to clicker training instantly with the help of this book. I am so happy that I bought it. I think that it was a great investment for me and my puppy. I do wished that it had a little more in it. I do think that each trick is precise; however, I do wish there were more tricks to teach. My puppy now knows how to sit, lay down, and come. She absolutely loves playing the games. It is fun for me and her. Fabulous tool if you would like a well behaved and well trained puppy.
 Get it at the library July 25, 2005

Go borrow the book at the library. You can read it in an hour because it has lots and lots of simplified drawings, most of which take up full pages. The text is also very simplistic.
Most libraries have it. Mine had several copies. I usually buy books, but this one really is not worth spending the money on. It is a good book and will give you an idea of how to begin the training.
Wonderfull Start for person with no idea of clicker training. July 17, 2005

This Book is very helpfull and informative to people completely new to clicker training. With my ever failing voice i simply cannot repeat the same command with the same tone or pitch, thus i was incapable to come through to my dog, i was not credible. Clicker training with the help of this book made training fun again! This book among others also was quite encuraging! To me at least.
I must agree though with a fellow reviewer below that one thing that is missing is a show training chapter. I would also say that further reading of related books would perhaps expand my skill, but just as a tryout or for begginers this books is fine!
