Format:Paperback
This is a really good little book, and has a lot of useful stuff in there that you might otherwise not come across - the only down-side is that it is American and some bits of equipment are hard to get here in the UK. In particular Dog Coolers - For climate change heat-waves!. However, it got me thinking about the sorts of stuff I could engage my pack in - and we have gone on to develop other games - some invented by the gang, not me. Fetch? Not my guys - they have MUCH better things to do now.

Lots of fun activities
10 Dec 2003
Format:Paperback
This book has all sorts of fun ideas and my dogs love to try the new games in it. It also has lots of resources if you want to find out more. I have an old dog and a young dog and it has something for both of them. (The reveiwer who complained about some of the actvities for her dog must of not read the introduction where it said that not every activity was suggested for every dog...) This book has made my puppy easier to live with because he is never bored. And it helps keep my old dog entertained even though she can't do much exercise.

Fun??
9 Dec 2003
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
It is hard to believe this book was written by an adult professional. Some of the activities suggested involve encouraging the dog to behave in undesirable ways, such as barking excessively, running wildly through the house, or attacking your shoes. Others, such as "walking lessons" where you grab the dog by it's legs and force him to walk, seem to border on abusive. I was looking for more activities to do with my Lab, and didn't find one.

OK but not Great
19 April 2007
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have large dogs and was not very impressed with this book. Most of the tricks require more than one person to assist in the game. I think the tricks would work better for someone with small dogs and small kids. I liked "The Idiots Guide to Dog Tricks" - I thought it had better instructions and more ideas than this book.
