I appreciate the training tips and anecdotes which reinforce their philosophy of the relationship between canines and humans.

I have always been around dogs that had behavior issues and I found this book inspirational and so needed! It is also written with clarity, humor and kindness.

The beginning has a brief intro on their general philosophy on dogs and training dogs. The rest (I think--I'm actually only 2/3 the way through) consists of 5-10 pages each on a specific dog that came to them with behaviour problems. They talk about the dog, then they talk in detail about what they did for that specific dog and owner. <br /> <br />This book is also great because of the pictures. There are tons of great colorful pictures of the dogs in each scenario. They also have step-by-step pictures of the monks training the dogs to do certian things (sit, stay, come, heel). <br /> <br />This is not an all-inclusive guide on how to train and raise a dog. For that, I would recommend "Raising Your Dog with the Monks of New Skete". This complements that, or any other formal training book, very well. Great book. Rating: 5 / 5 This is a great book.
