Dog Behavior and Training Books
For those interested, the following is a list of books that
I've have found helpful. As
you read these always keep in mind that there is no one way - no "magic bullet"
- to training dogs. Each of these books
has useful information, but no one book has all the right answers for your
dog. Read each one, taking from it the
information that is useful to your dog/family relationship.
