Service Dog Training Guide: A Step-by-Step Training Program for You and Your Dog

Great starter book. Most important is the relationship you have with your dog. Remember, this is a working dog, not a pet. You will love each other but it’s most important that the dog always understands the order given and follows it.

Helpful, practical

Super easy to read & understand for people wondering the difference between the different types of certifications. Shows the expected prices for it, explains the industry & how things work. I have another book that much more on the topic but its for those serious about doing it all the way through. I like this book because its a good size print, easy to read, and a great start for those wondering if they should even investigate if they or a loved one can actually commit to the training or if they need to get an animal already trained. It has some ideas about what to train your dog to do for what disabilities but not fully covered! Would be great to get someone who you may think they may need a support dog & is stubborn about not having a “dog in the house” as they are work animals & NOT pets. Once you train a service animal its VERY hard for them to be a “pet” after so do you homework…PLEASE!I found for me hybrid training is the best as I dont have the stamina for the standing but need help. So I have a gal come in to fill in what I cand do. Just an idea!

Got for friend. Good read. Read to dog but she still pulls a little.

I trained my own SD before getting this book...I kinda wish I had this before I started. There are some really good tips that could have made it easier to train my Doberman.

Good book just wished it showed you how to do certain things.

Easy to foollow and train my service dog. He feels my pain and consoles me. When I drop something he picks it up for me. Where I go he goes.

We bought both the Kindle and the spiral-bound version of this book because it is so useful and easy to use. I highly recommend it.
