Product Description
Hyper dogs are often overly energetic, wickedly smart, and incredibly stubborn. How do you turn your furry flurry of activity into a sane, mild-mannered companion? This book gives you fun, hip techniques especially for hyper dogs and harried pet parents who want quick results. You'll discover how to:

  • Help your dog burn excess energy quickly and safely
  • Use communication and training skills to gain control
  • Use obedience games, attention builders, and outdoor adventures to train and bond with your dog
  • Create the perfect canine chill-out sanctuary
  • Handle problems like separation anxiety and special circumstances like vet visits

With a canine personality profile to help you better understand your pet and real-life stories of dogs who may make your rambunctious renegade seem saintly, this book will help you channel your dog's energy and turn her into a cool, calm, and collected companion.

2 out of 5 stars Hyper dog book not so hyper   July 7, 2008
 0 out of 2 found this review helpful

I didn't gain a lot of useful information from this book. There are a couple of chapters that make the book worth buying.


1 out of 5 stars Big Disappointment   October 1, 2007
 10 out of 15 found this review helpful

Let me preface this by saying that I've been working with animals for about 10 years in varying capacities, including working as a sealion trainer, and I have done extensive reading of various training methods. In this book, I expected to find new ideas for training interesting games with my hyper dog. Instead, pretty much every training suggestion given in this book involved "jerking" the dog's leash if they didn't immediately comply with what was being asked. I have always worked with positive training methods, and continually yanking on my dog's throat just doesn't fall in with those methods. Because of their high energy, hyper dogs need even more patience to teach them productive and appropriate ways of using their energy, but instead of patience, the authors of this book recommend routinely punishing the dog for being hyper- exactly the dogs this book was written for.

Sadly, this book was a total waste of my money, and I really can't recommend it for anyone. Thankfully, my dogs won't be subjected to the discomfort suggested by the authors of this book.



5 out of 5 stars Great for Rambo OR Couch Potato pooches   May 11, 2007
 3 out of 6 found this review helpful

This manual is a great resource for any dog owner. It breaks down ideas into easy, understandable steps and will work if your dog has lots of energy or even if he/she doesn't. Great how-to photos and common sense manners training for a happy relationship with your best friend.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent, Easy to Read and Follow, Awesome Info! Have a Hyper Dog? Read this Book   April 20, 2007
 4 out of 5 found this review helpful

I just love this book. It's easy to follow, and they don't over complicate the wording so anyone can easily pull info from it. Gathering information is easy, because the topics are clearly labeled. They also have little exerts of helpful hints, which are very useful and easy to read. If you have a dog who you think is a bit hyper, this would be a great help. Especially if getting rid of your dog ever crosses your mind, because you don't feel you are giving the dog the stimulation it needs, or the dog is getting into mischief because it's not getting the stimulation it needs. It puts things into perspective on what a dog needs and what you need to do to give it to him. It teaches you how to train your dog and helps you to understand the way they think. It gives you great tips on traveling with your dog to, barking and baying to pulling on the lead. Some of the tricks they teach in this book are awesome and would impress the heck out of your friends. It even covers dogs with new babies, toddlers and children. The book is like one stop shopping for any kind of behavior problem. Definitely worth the read, there's so much info in it, many more topics than I have mentioned in this review.


5 out of 5 stars Yet Another Excellent Book!   April 9, 2007
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This book is great and comes as no surprise after reading Amy's other
books. Common sense, down-to-earth approaches by Amy and her experienced
trainers! You'll love this book even if you don't have a hyper dog!
