Great book by Pat Miller. It is a wonderful perspective of the change in training that has happened in the last 15-20 yrs. And the reason why. Having come from the dark side myself I can appreciate her journey to TPPDT. I have recommended this book to new first time dog owners or owner wannabes. All dogs deserve to have had their owners read this book(among others). Well read by Susan Boyce(and no she is not condescending ). Please read OTHER END OF THE LEASH as well. These two books dovetail well together. You'll be happy you did and so will your canine companions!

I was a small child when I last had a dog in the family, and my wife has never had a pet of any kind. When we first discussed adopting a rescue, we agreed that we needed to first have our own house with a yard, and we had to be prepared to spend the time to train and adjust the future family member to work well and smoothly together. Now, two years after first discussing this, we have a place with a yard, and have taken the time to prepare.

We have a few books in print, Kindle, and this audio book. This audio book has proven to be my favorite -- the reader has a pleasant and easy to hear voice. The material is well organized. and I appreciate that it covers not just what techniques to try, but a bit of the background about why those methods should work. Many of the lessons have alternative options if the main technique isn't working, and all lessons have a troubleshooting section at the end, and some pointers about common pitfalls.

While we have not yet adopted, so I can't vouch for the efficacy of the training yet, I can say that pre reading this made me far more comfortable. I will be re listening to this as I go through the individual lessons.

I feel much more ready to adopt a rescue now!

Comprehensive look at positive reinforcement dog training. A bit like a textbook, not riveting reading but certainly interesting and feels like the right approach. Would definitely recommend it to anyone owning or becoming an owner of a dog and applicable to any other animal including humans

Informative and sound

An OK read, i thought it would have more information about what positive training is, why it's important and so on.

It did include that stuff, but it was mostly a "how to"

not what i thought, but still good.
