How often have we wished someone successful would show us the ropes? With Ross Allans Dog Training it's easy to tap into the experience and hard work that often take years and years to accumulate. The efforts of Ross Allan in this book show simple straight forward techniques on how to avoid and correct the problems most of us experience with our dogs every single day. I had a bit of a stint working as a Dog Handler in the South African military. Now I work for Guide Dogs Queensland Australia. To see Ross work with his dog "The Cisco kid" was something harmonious. Kind of what we all strive for in our relationship with our companions. Give it a read, and pick up the phone... the author is a nice guy too.

To everyone looking to purchase a book to aid in the training of your dog look no further. "Dog Obedience Training" is an easy to follow, step-by-step introduction into dog training which has no boundaries. It outlines the importance of pack structure, training your dog with love and the importance of discipline. At long last a book which really works to prduce a well - mannered, well - trained, obedient dog!

Dog Obedience Training by Ross Allan is an easy to read step by step training guide providing the reader with practical training and an insight into the canine physic. The book begins with a background into the Author and his family. It talks about his qualifications and experience which I found very important. The approach of the book is practical and in a sense 'obvious once you and your canine know how'. It teaches the reader to train their animal with praise, corrections, repetition, bonding and eye contact. I have found this book to be the most effective training tool for both myself and my German Shepherd Kayla. We are both much better for it and enjoy a greater bonding as a result.

The quallity of material and contents of this book made it a must for my personal library. The informative contents and ease of reading made understanding each exercise a simple task when it came to implmenting my dogs training. The obvious knowledge and experience of the author showed through clearly as someone who takes dog training seriously. The books picture illustrations were invaluable in understanding the basics of each exercise. This book is well worth the expense, a very well presented and set out guide to dog training.

At last a useful,back to basics,thoughtful book on obedience. This is a book to use from the very beginning of your dogs training as a puppy or in his middle or even later years, the principles applied suit all. I thought I knew it all having trained all my dogs to competition level until this one dog beat me. Using this book and referring to it I can now take my well behaved dog anywhere. I found that a lot of methods I had first learnt 20 years ago using working dog principles as I was taught I had forgotten in shortcutting. This book brought me back to the solid foundation I needed. All the pages are laminated so one can refer to it as needed without the pages wearing.
