5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent guide to training all dogs, 25 Feb 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Training the German Shepherd Dog (Hardcover)
This book is an excellent guide to training all kind of dogs not just the German Shepherd. It is simple and easy to follow and is well illustrated. It offers a step by step guide to training your dog to whatever standard you are looking for, from basic pet obedience up to competition level, using modern methods.

1.0 out of 5 stars BEWARE - the Synopsis makes inaccurate claims!, 4 Dec 2006
BEWARE - the Synopsis makes inaccurate claims!

As I'm considering buying a German Shepherd, I was looking for a book specifically dealing with this breed. The synopsis claimed: "Covering all aspects of training and with a strong emphasis on understanding the breed's psyche," which fooled me into buying a copy.

This claim could not be further from the truth. The synopsis should more accurately read, "For those interested in circuit training, with a few small black and white photos of German Shepherds thrown in for good measure."

I can't comment on whether it does a good job coaching readers to train their non-specific-breed of dog to jump through tyres, weave through cones and skip merrily before the judges, but I can say as a book about German Shepherd dogs, their history, their psyche, specifics of the breed, etc, with particular emphasis on training, it's marginally better than "The Complete Cat Guide," but not much... So again, to summarise:

For circuit training your dog - maybe.
For German Shepherd specific training - no way

4.0 out of 5 stars Ahead of its time!, 6 Jun 2009
By Ms. J. A. Brown (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Training the German Shepherd Dog (Hardcover)
Really good book - works along the lines of many modern day dog training techniques but its been around for years. John Cree clearly adores working with his dogs and provides really good explanations and ideas for different elements of working with your dog. Its suitable for anyone wanting to take on basic training to those who want to have a go at working trials etc.
