[Karen · Rating 4 out of 5]

I bought this book after I had our dog in obedience school, so I wasn't sure how helpful the book would be. Our dog, a Rhodesian Ridgeback, at ten weeks old, was the youngest and the biggest dog in class. She also was the star pupil. She wanted to go first, and would even show the 'slacker' dog how to follow the command. She passed her eight-week class with flying colors. And then, on the way home from her final class, she ate her diploma. I was glad I had this book then.

This book is easy to follow. It does teach the basic commands slightly different than the obedience class did, but not so different as to be confusing, and the book even gave a variety of ways to the commands.

This book only teaches these three commands but it does a good job doing it. They are the three basic commands you need to teach your dog before progressing.

This is a short, but informative book that explains how to teach your dog a few basic commands.This edition has a bunch of fun, colorful illustrations scattered throughout the narrative.

[Haley · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a short and simple guide to teaching your dog how to come, sit, and stay. Considering those are the three commands most owners want to start with, this book is a great start to help anyone train their dog. The book gives several different methods to teach each command as well as general training tips. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to teach their dog to come, sit, and stay because this book has the information you need in a very simple and easy to understand format.
