Now you need a book on how to groom your pet yourself. Here you go! Pictures. Reasons and methods. Customization and options. Remember that hair and nails are renewable resources - and have fun as you bond and trim your family addition.

Super Dog Tricks: Make Your Dog a Super Dog with Step by Step Tricks and Training Tips by Sara Carson


★★★★ ☐ The publisher has provided a copy for review.

We have one smart dog who refuses to do anything he doesn't feel like doing, no matter what the reward. We also have a not-so-smart dog who struggles to understand anything beyond training us with "if I lay on my back, will you scratch my belly?" And we have a dog who will do anything to please you (except fetch). They walk together on one leash but none of them wants to fetch a ball.

So I was intrigued by the book - and the structures needed to make your dog pay attention first, and then learn commands after that. Well-illustrated and encouraging, this book shows you how to be in charge of a healthy relationships that nourishes your well-being and makes your dog content and ready to follow. I'm working on the basics.

Recommended, especially for new dog owners and those who have a dog but are clueless about setting boundaries or making your creature happier.
