Thank you very much for the book review. I saw the book listed on bard. I was trying to decide whether another dog book would be worth my time. My interest in training dogs is moderate to high. I love working with my girl. And I love getting tips and tricks. But delving into the complex world of training dogs is probably not something I’ll spend a great deal of time Learning. And I find a lot of the service dog training books or tips and tricks for dog owners books and stories about dogs and their handler’s, very boring. So I look forward to reading this one. Thanks for the review

At Your Service,
Kevan Worley

Then again, I am a dog training nerd and find the technical aspects of dog training very interesting. I also appreciated that the author was very real. She gave  the positives and negatives, what she likes and what she does not agree with. It wasn’t one of those guide dogs are amazing magical creatures and the program I work for is the best one in the world type of narratives.
