A must read for all dog owners, Labradorian or otherwise! June 2, 2000

I recommend this book to all dog owners, regardless of breed. For those Labradorially inclined, the breed-specific information is invaluable, honest, and detailed. For Labradorians and all other dog owners, the behavior and training sections are some of the best I've read. This book is comprehensible and comprehensive.The layout and writing style make the information extremely accessible. The information itself is extremely detailed and important to all dog owners. Joel and Eve have succeeded in explaining the secrets of making a good dog into a great dog, through management and training. It's no surprise this book is so popular. Not only is it about one of the most wonderful and popular breeds of dog today, but it is chock full of information vital to dog owners of any breed. In my capacity as a professional dog trainer, I have had occasion to work with puppy owners who have read this book, and I have to say "What a difference a book makes"--this book! Owners who have read this book understand how their dogs' minds work, and grasp what I have to teach them about training and problem solving that much easier. Thank you, Joel and Eve, for helping me do my job better!
*Great book for lab owners* April 30, 2000

There's LOTS of good advise whether you're a novice or long time lab owner. There's stuff here that you'd only get from a long-time breeder of Labs. It's unlike any other book on the market that I've found. They have crammed volumes of info into one book.
Great book! October 14, 1999

I am thirteen and have read a lot of books on Labs, but none compare to this! It is very easy to read and gives a whole lot of information. I would definitely recommend it to readers of all ages.
A great book! July 11, 1999

Joel has written a book which realy can apply to all breeds. It is concise and very readable for the lay person as well as to the professional trainer. I recommend Joel Walton's book to people in all stages of learning to live with and train their dogs.
An excellent reference for any lab owner. July 5, 1999
