This book contains a lot of good information for people who are new to owning dogs or dog owners who haven't stayed up-to-date on the latest information on dog training and behavior.

This book took a long time reading. I heard him on PBR and wanted more information about what he was saying in the interview.

A worthwhile read for anyone with a dog.
