I like that there are a lot of photos. I would've rated it higher but I don't agree with some of his philosophies. (Squirt your dog in the face, restrict petting, alpha/dominance)

The trainer who wrote this was obviously experienced. His methods were fairly descent considering the better ones I have seen. If you are getting a new dog, you may want to read this and follow some of the trainging steps.It was very interesting.
