| Good for owners dealing with dog-dog aggession, December 14, 2016 |
| Reviewer: Johanna Bouchard |
| Fight! is a great source of information and helpful solutions for owners of dogs who are dog-aggressive. Covers different aspects of aggression and the positive-based training techniques owners can use to overcome them. Some parts of the book get more technical than others by delving into behavior and learning theory jargon, but has plenty of good, sound, practical training advice. Highly recommended! |

| Reviewer: Natalia Scott |
| This book is not very complete. It is a little bit limited. In some parts of the lecture, it becomes very hard to read. In general, not enough info & boring. |

| Reviewer: Shannon Rickett |
| This offers complete information on dog aggression and how to modify behavior. It also suggests a professional trainer- as would I. As always, Jean Donaldson offers information in a different way of thinking and with some scientific backing. If more owners read books like these, dogs wouldn't have the problems they do. |
