Lee Hanrahan Webboard User Reg: 10-17-2001 Posts: 109 Loc: Oxford Mills, Ontario Offline	Hi, I am new to Schutzhund (training for about a year) - in Canada. I am looking for a good, easy to follow, basic book on schutzhund - how to train, rules, etc... Any advice? Thanks Lee tighe@primus.ca http://www.leespets.com

Here is a link to the page: http://www.leerburg.com/books.htm If you can't be a Good Example,then You'll just have to Serve as a Horrible Warning. Catherine Aird.

Robert VanCamp Webboard User Reg: 11-28-2001 Posts: 3916 Loc: Offline	In my opinion the best overall begining book to get a feel for what Schutzhund is all about is: Schutzhund: Theory and Training Methods By Susan Barwig and Stewart Hilliard Unfortunately Ed don't sell this one, but http://www.Amazon.com does. I also love Sheila Booth's book, Purely Positive Training: Companion to Competition. Ed does sell this one.

Lee Baragona Webboard User Reg: 03-29-2002 Posts: 926 Loc: Offline	Ok, I'll throw my two cents in: the best dog training book I've ever read (and I am one voracious reader!) is Fundamentals of Learning and Motivation by Frank Logan. And the word dog isn't in the book anywhere. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> But if you understand that book cover to cover, you're so far ahead of the game, it ain't funny.

Robert VanCamp Webboard User Reg: 11-28-2001 Posts: 3916 Loc: Offline	Oh. . .no. . .you've got to be kidding me? If it ain't got the word DOG in it, I don't wanna read it. I like pics too. Does it have pics? Of what is my question. . . :rolleyes: Is it at least about animals? Or is this just a general motivation and training book for all living things? I have some ivy that just won't "train" itself up my stone courtyard walls.

Lee Baragona Webboard User Reg: 03-29-2002 Posts: 926 Loc: Offline	Hmmmm, define "animals". How do you feel about white rats and pidgeons?? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> And it's got lots of pictures, if that includes charts and graphs! No? Can't help you then. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> Captain Correction can't train ivy??? It doesn't have any teeth - what's the problem?
