The book has had great commercial success over the years. I think you’ll find that “Communicating with Your Dog” will be the only dog training book you’ll ever need, your dog training bible.

You’ll be delighted at how willing your dog is to respond to your commands, and how easy it is to transform an unruly animal into a model canine citizen. These magic words will serve as the basis for further training and will reward both of you with greater friendship and understanding. The clearly written text is accompanied by excellent color photographs showing step-by-step training techniques. You owe it to your pet to share this language!
