I found this book to be very helpful with easy verbal commands. the techniques being offered here for me at least were good for my dog was having problems being around other dogs when I would take him to classes. here were simple instructions for me to follow. I found it was more for me than for my dog. I have an Australian and part Catahoula he has a lot of energy but is a good dog.

Interesting read! Wealth of information on how to gently train mans best friend using a ecollar. I’m new to the Monks of New Skete but this was an easy guide to training your dog. I don’t actually have a dog but I’m researching a ton of stuff before I get one. I’ve had dogs before and I’ve always had issues with getting a dog to obey commands.

What did I like? They take the guesswork out of collars and give you a couple that they recommend. They also guide you through how to collar your dog, and leash. This could be a beginner guide all the way up to just information to learn the behaviors of dogs. There are a ton of pictures to help with teaching your dog commands, all very easy to spot issues you might be having. I’m still working on finding a good breed that will be compatible with me, but I will be definitely using these techniques.

Would I recommend or buy? Yes....These Monks have a passion for these animals, and I found this to be a great guide. Years of experience inside this training guide. Anyone looking to use this book to gently train there dog will benefit at the wealth of knowledge. I will be using these techniques and the tips for collars.

I received a complimentary copy to read and voluntarily left a review.

It is very interesting to read how the Monks of New Skete train dogs. I remember reading another book about them long ago, back before e-collars were available. There are so many more options nowadays!

This is a great book! I have a Great Pyrenees, a Husky and a pomeranian so this book has been very helpful. I did have trouble with the kindle version it has weird errors I'm assuming will be corrected in publication but I was able to view it fine in the Adilko.

This book is very detailed and informative and has great information on using an e-collar. (I don't have an e-collar but I found it very well written). I highly recommend it.

I received this from NetGalley for an honest review.

Great book! I have a German Shepherd and a Husky and besides the fact that they're both trained with simple commands, it's always great to read more about it. This book is very detailed and informative about training your dog using e-collar. Super recommend it. I received a free digital copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review

A huge thank you to NetGalley and Countryman Press for the Advanced Release Copy in exchange for my honest review.

I grew up with German Shepherds and have been a Certified dog trainer through both NADOI and IACP for 16 years. There was no way not to know who the Monks are. It was very exciting to get the chance to review their new e-collar book.

Like all of their other books, this one is very detailed, comprehensive and informative. When used appropriately, there is so much utility in e-collars that it is wonderful to have a resource written by experts like the monks.
