DOMINIQUE JORDAN –
Itâs a must read
It has great knowledge and it has great points! The book is very valuable
H. Hosny –
Force free, science supported, beautifully packaged, and free of dog training jargon. Outstanding for a new dog owner!
I want to preface this by saying I have a very large collection of dog training books and DVDs. I’ve got all the “right” titles by Jean Donaldson, Pat Miller, Suzanne Clothier, Karen Pryor, Sophia Yin, Ian Dunbar, Grisha Stewart, Nicole Wilde, and many less recognizable, but equally insightful authors-trainers. As a dog lover, hobbyist-trainer and shelter volunteer, I have benefited immensely from all these authors. They’re great for a reading audience that consists of trainer-colleagues, and dog nerds. However…One of the unfortunate tendencies many authors tend to partake in is that they are unable to be concise and they are unable to avoid talking the science — to the point of being less accessible to a casual dog owner (which is over 95% of all people with dogs). When I help people modify unwanted behaviors, I can’t hand them a book by most of the authors whom I’ve mentioned above because they are just too verbose and unable to break things down into an attractive, well presented 1-2-3-4 style of presentation. It’s 2017. Presentation matters.Kyra Sundance, on the other hand, gets it. Se realizes that for the average person, too much info is too much info. She understands the need for outstanding photos and graphic design. She understands the need for brevity and leaving out all the science and theory. She understand the need for making it not feel like research and homework.While some of her titles are too advanced and too much along the lines of “Why would I teach my dog a party tricks?”, this one here is gold. If you are a new dog owner or an owner who suspects that you can enrich your life with your dog by teaching your dog and engaging your dog with games, this book will easily exceed your expectations and prove to be the most useful one that you can get. Despite the title, it’s about more than just training. It’s also about how to make life-with-dogs work well.The dog training world needs more people like Kyra, who are ridiculously accomplished in her abilities to train, yet willing to keep teach without trying to impress colleagues with high brow assertions and clinically presented science. Kyra is basically the clean-conscienced, relationship-centered, force-free, and fun-loving trainer whom all trainers, small-town and TV-successful, could learn a lot from.

Good basics
Good basic instructions with plenty of reference photos. Not detailed, but gets to the point.
Christine Scarpetti –
Two thumbs up
Easy to follow with pics and explanations.
Brendan Moore –
OK if you are looking for training basics.
There was some useful information in the book and helpful illustrations. The book lacked useful training solutions for serious and common behavioral problems like agression. For example, suggesting that a dog put on a muzzle for dog to dog agression and not offering any training direction as a solution is not very useful for dog owners.

Makes it easy and intuitive
Weâre getting a new puppy and wanted to brush up on proper training skills. This book does all that, and in easy way, using photographs. Her messages are intuitive and make it easier to train the dog.

Pretty informative with pictures and lots of activities! Great for first time dog owners.
Susannah –
I bought this as it looked great, however I have preferred to go on YouTube and search for training there. I found a great channel âDog Training with Kikopup.â I do look in the book occasionally but I end up going to YouTube instead in the end as thereâs not much depth.Now I wish I hadnât bought the book and wasted my money.
