      Absolutely fantastic! Written for the pet dog owner, this is perfectly written- a succinct yet comprehensive book, and who doesn't love that?! And as of 2022, still not at all out of date. No wonder this is listed as sort of the "bible" of positive dog training for those of us becoming dog trainers. Ms. Miller, thank you a thousand times over for all that you have done to help dogs and their human counterparts!!

      You have to be an idiot to think positive only training is useful. And I’m a mostly positive trainer.
    • 5/5
      Spoken simply and informatively. Easy to follow, however probably better as a reference book. Still, I learned listening to this, and may get the physical book for quick reference.
