| Excellent, August 14, 2003 |
| Reviewer: dog mom |
This is a great book. I've read just about every book on obedience there is and, IMO, this is one of the 2 best (Terri Arnold's 3 vol series is the other one.) They also manage to walk the line between positives and corrections.
The other neat thing is that they often present 2 different approaches to teaching something. |

| A Must Have for Serious Obedience Trainers, January 3, 2005 |
| Reviewer: Judy Bos |
| I recently received Competition Obedienced: A Balancing Act.as a gift. I found the book very comprehensive in all aspects of obedience training at all levels. I especially liked the fact that the authors presented their preferred training method but did not dismiss other ways. I thought each section was clearly presented in text and accompanying illustrations. I liked the possible problems section and how to solve them and proofing techniques. You can easily see that these authors have lived the obedience experience at all levels. |

| Very helpful book, December 21, 2006 |
| Reviewer: Just starting out |
| This book is easy to read and understand with excellent illustrations, and is laid out to work well as a cover-to-cover read or as a reference book. As a newbie to competition obedience, I bought this book as a companion to working with a trainer and it is an excellent companion as it explains some of my questions, offers alternate techniques when we stall, and does not contradict what we've already learned. |
