About this title

From the Author:

I'm so excited to show you my new book! My original book, 101 Dog Tricks, has been incredibly well received with over a half-million copies in print worldwide. Kids love that book, however I noticed that they would invariably pick out the flashiest tricks to try to teach their dog (tricks like "fetch a soda from the fridge"). Needless to say, they weren't very successful.
          Through teaching 4H programs I was inspired to write a version of my book tailored especially for kids; a book with simple tricks, games, and crafts that kids and dogs could actually be successful at. I brought some kids to the photo studio, showed them how to train a dog, and 5 minutes later we captured the process in photos. The result was sensational-- because it was real! Kids are intrigued by photos of other kids. With this book, kids can self-direct and study and mimic the step-by-step photos. It makes it easy for them to be successful! Happy training!
