Product Description
101 Dog Tricks is the largest trick book on the market and the only one presenting full-color photos of each trick and its training steps? The step-by-step approach, difficulty rating, and prerequisites, allow readers to start training immediately. Tips and trouble-shooting boxes cover common problems, while "build-on" ideas suggest more complicated tricks which build on each new skill. No special tools (such as clickers) or knowledge of specific training methods are required. Trick training is a great way to bond with your dog and help him integrate into your family. It keeps him mentally and physically challenged and helps to establish paths of communication between you. Many tricks build skills needed for common dog sports, dog dancing, and dog therapy work. It's every dog lover's privilege that Kyra and Chalcy took time from their performing schedule to share their secrets in 101 Dog Tricks.

 Best Dog Trick Book Ever November 19, 2009
WineDreamGirl (San Diego, CA)
I'm so into this book! Beautifully designed, photographed and written, 101 Dog Tricks is perfect for me and my 5-year-old Jack Russell Terrier. Since he was six weeks old, Rocket has been getting by on his cuteness (and very well, I might add). In addition to being physically energetic, he has an active mind and gets bored easily. Kyra Sundance and Chalcy's wonderful book has given him some fun mental challenges and, as the subtitle says, created a greater bond between us. I highly recommend this book!
Best training book out there (for me and my dog) November 10, 2009

I started working with my dog two days ago, using this book. I love it and so, it seems, does my dog. I had tried unsuccessfully to teach her some tricks, but soon just lost interest. Within minutes of using the techniques in this book, I saw progress. She's already rolling over on her own, with a lure (treat), granted, but that is the successful first step. I expect in a few weeks, she will be doing it on command. We are also working on peek-a-boo and a few others, with great success. I also like that the author includes the training steps for agility, disc dogging, and dog dancing. What fun!101 Dog Tricks: Step by Step Activities to Engage, Challenge, and Bond with Your Dog

As the owner of a professional pet-sitting and dog-walking business in Michigan, USA, I'm always seeking new ways to engage, positively challenge, and bond with my pet clients. Our winter season is long, and we have many rainy days throughout the year. When the weather is inappropriate for walking dogs, I turn to the pages of 101 Dog Tricks, by Kyra Sundance and Chalcy. This step-by-step book offers marvelous ways to spend quality time indoors with dogs of all ages! Training is a fun way to stimulate a dog's mind, senses and physical skills. And this book shows the reader how to play with your dog using positive training methods accompanied by fantastic photographs. This is an outstanding book for anyone interested in helping integrate a dog into your family, and keep her mentally and physically challenged. The rewards are invaluable!

Well organized with great content August 29, 2009
Chris Hardee, PMP (Orlando, FL)
I have gotten a lot of use out of this book. It is arranged in a way that makes individual tricks easy to follow. My dogs have learned some of the tricks already and I look forward to teaching them several more.
Great job!
