My mini dachshund and I have had a blast learning the tricks in this book- they're easy and fun to teach and make dog training so much easier! And my puppy loves learning them too.

I AM JUST DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE THIS BOOK HAS A LOT THAT ONLY BIGGER DOGS CAN DO. MY DOG IS A 3LB POODLE AND WOULD NEED A LADDER TO OPEN THE DOOR,IT CANT GET THE TELEPHONE BECAUSE ITS TOO HEAVY, I WOULD NEVER HAVE IT LEARN TO WALK ON A LADDER..THERES JUST A LOT OF BIG DOG TRICKS N NOT THE SMALL DOG TRICKS

While I am a many time author and know it's proven that the "101..." titles sell, I usually shy away from them. But thanks to the reviews on Amazon I bought this book. As reviewers wrote, this book is excellent.
It's the "Dog Tricks" part that suggested it isn't a serious dog training book; but serious it is. Yes, some of these could be called "tricks", but all of the basics that are so necessary to teach one's dog to get along in the human world are there: sit, down, stay, come, etc.
The way the book is laid out with two pages for each exercise and the clear writing and backup information makes it super easy for a complete novice to understand and teach themselves and then their dog these exercises.
Dogs love to please us and doing these positive training exercises truly works. Do him or her a favor and stick to a daily training plan.

This book has been great!! I am on my 2nd copy, as I gave the first one away to a friend who fell in love with it, and am planning on buying a 3rd copy to send to another friend.
This book is very easy to follow and a pleasure to page through. The photo's are fun, and make it a good pick for kids, who might not enjoy reading directions, as you can pretty much just follow the pictures. It includes hand signals and verbal cues, a lists of previous tricks to be mastered, and skill level. Whenever I run into a problem I go to the 'trouble shooting' section in the margin next to each trick, and it always has anticipated the snag and offers a helpful solution.
So far my chihuahua can sit, lay down, beg, shake hands, twirl, and roll over!! Not bad for a breed known for being yappy and being carted around like Cleopatra in handbags! I have had the book for about 5 months. We work all the tricks every night after her dinner. It's her 'school' and she loves it! I think she has become more confident since we started training. I know she feels very proud of herself when she does it right.
I highly recommend this book.
