| Great Agility reference book, April 15, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Tammi Stone |
I attended Eva and Emelie's seminar about 1 month ago and bought this book there.
It is a very comprehensive book that can be used for clicker training agility from the start, or retrain.
It is arranged so that exercises are easy to find and return back to. Some of their ideas are different than most US Clicker trainers, but make sense as well as easier for the dog to understand as they are consistent in their basic approach to all their training exercises.
Their ideas are refreshing and give you more ideas to strengthen your training skills. |

| Fundamental Agility Fun, April 16, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Donna Elkin |
| As a dog book junkie, I get excited about every new clicker book, but this one has gone right to the top of my list. It is so complete in foundation work, that it will be not until I get into the second hundred pages that I will begin training. I've said this before, but I believe this is the last clicker and agility book I will ever need. Nothing is left to chance. Now the fun begins, and so much can be done at home rather than driving far to an agility field. I can't imagine a better book than this one. Definitely worth the price. |
