"No idea who this Samuel character is in the review that gave 1 star, but he obviously didn't read the same book, or has no clue what he's talking about when it comes to dogs. Anyone with a dog should read this book, the monks are masters at what they do and have a true connection with their dogs, and a great understanding of canine behaviors. "

" A firm and non-abusive approach to forming a Master/dog relationship with Fido. Very clear, but requires a lot of work. "

— James, 10/30/2009" Come visit me and my dog and I'll let you decide whether these monks know what they're talking about...Right now I'm not convinced... "
