I ordered this book as it seemed to focus on good tips for managing a multi-dog household. If I'd been looking for a book that focused on cheesy homilies and patronising claptrap, I'd give it five stars. The best thing I can say was that at that price I can afford the disappointment. Not only was it the biggest waste of my time ever (I did actually read it in the hope of unearthing some hidden gem), I'd actually be embarrassed to pass it on to some other unsuspecting reader via the local charity shop. No stars is still too good a score but Amazon wouldn't let me get away with less than one...sorry, Patricia!
