Product Reviews

(5 stars) - Excellent, useful, understandable training
I was reluctant to view this DVD because there are as many ways to train as there are people in the world, so I don't agree with all of them. I was pleasantly surprised at how realistic this DVD is. The two trainers train the way a new puppy owner wants to train. In the house or the yard, with the dog paying attention but not on the leash most of the time. Their training is very intuitive, in other words, they use the dog's natural reactions to adjust the training. To teach come, run away from the dog with treats in your hand. To teach leave it, give a treat reward and then give the item right back to the dog at first. When I was writing Paws & Effect: The Healing Power of Dogs, I noticed that trainers started with very young dogs and trained every day, and thought of ways to keep the dog busy, just as these trainers do. I also like that they are not movie star types, just regular trainers like you might meet in your own town. Very impressive training DVD.

(5 stars) - My tail is still wagging
The dvd is very comprehenshive. I found new methods of training my Jack Russell Terriers that works. I found it helpful to have a visual of the training techniques. The editing of the pieces seemed a little rough but the ladies on the video got their poitn across.

(5 stars) - Worth the money!
This is a very complete DVD, perfect for the first time puppy owner! Nicole & Laura's gentle method, with clear, precise, step-by-step directions on everything you could want to know. From teaching your dog commands, dealing with behavior issues, crate training, housebreaking, leadership, clicker training tips, play toys, interactive food toys, car safety and even a sample day at the park! They use different dog breeds for each segment, which makes it very interesting and fun as well! I see myself using this DVD for a long time to come. It's rich with tips and is very useful. It's a must-have! I also recommend any DVD by Cesar Millan, the star of National Geographic's "The Dog Whisperer" cable TV show.

(5 stars) - Great.
I purchased this a couple of years ago and used the methods with my Basenji Terrier. I also incorporate those methods with Cesar Milan's methods and it's worked wonders for my dog. I'm also incorporating agility training, as well. Petsafe's tire jump and tunnel-chute are what we use. Thanks.

(1 stars) - Don't buy it!!
This is the biggest waste of time I have ever spent money on. The training is very poor, accomplishes nothing. I actually threw it in the trash. A real waste of time, money and effort.
