• Just Right!
  Tamar Geller hits the right balance between assertiveness and traditional reward based conditioning. You can truly tell that this remarkable woman loves dogs, and loves what she does.

• This book is useless.
  This woman spends more time talking about how great love is, wallowing in her own self pity, whining about her abusive parents, and name-dropping her "celebrity" clients than she does offering useful advice about training dogs.
