| Footnote 1: This is an excellent book.....except the chapter on training, where the author departs from the objective scientific approach, and promotes his personal preference in training methods. He does this by inaccurately describing other methods in order to make them look cruel and barbaric...a blot on what is otherwise a valuable addition to the dog lover's bookshelf. |
| Footnote 2: This is another excellent book, although difficult to read in some places due to the many atrocities that man has perpetrated against the dog. Unfortunately, the author chose to use the book as a forum for his own particular political views, presenting as fact what are merely his own hateful opinions about certain Presidents. He was kinder to his canine subjects. |
