5 out of 5 stars 101% for 101 Tricks   May 31, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

101 Dog Tricks gives easily understood instructions with one skill building on another to make intricate looking "tricks" relatively simple with wonderfully entertaining results.
A fun, attainable challenge for dog and human, and an inspiration to find that special relationship with your special dog.
Thumbs up for Kyra Sundance and Chalcy!



2 out of 5 stars Not the best, nice pictures though   May 25, 2008
 20 out of 26 found this review helpful

This is a great looking book, the pictures are lovely. Beyond that, I don't think it's a very good training book overall. The step by step instructions are often lacking clear details to teach the tricks and I find it depressing that the author advocates using physical corrections. For instance teaching shake, she recommends "bopping" the dog in the face if she sniffs your hand instead of pawing and to teach heel she recommends "popping" the collar if your dog strays out of line. They're just not necessary and even gentle corrections can destroy a softer dog's motivation so why include them? Presumably people getting this book want to have fun with their dogs.

There's also no mention of using a clicker in the steps, which I think would make it easier to teach some of the tricks...for instance using shaping if you have a dog who doesn't automatically mouth toys.

Though it is a pretty book, I don't recommend it as anything more than a picture book. It does have some good ideas but a better training book is "The Only Dog Tricks Book You'll Ever Need." I'm glad I bought both of them at the same time so I'm not stuck with this book by itself, though it seems fine with other books so I'm kind of neutral on it I guess.

Edited to add...the more I read this book the more I dislike it. Maybe I'm just stupid but I fail to see how pushing my dogs nose down teaches him to bow. Meanwhile shaping accomplished it in a week. Wish I had known the methods employed before buying this. Just a warning to anyone with similar concerns. Maybe I'm just crazy but I do wonder about the rave reviews here.

Great book. Lots on new tricks for this old dog. Easy to read, step by step directions were great!


4 out of 5 stars Great book but doesn't...   April 29, 2008

help with all the issues you run into trying to train. It did however help us learn how to start each trick we want to train and I have found it very useful.


5 out of 5 stars Fun with Results   April 18, 2008

This book has given me and my wife so many ideas for how to enforce positive behavior in our dogs yet in a fun, clearly explained way. We look forward to each new lesson we will learn with our dogs. It's like homework for dogs and their owners too. Great ideas and book.
