 So You WAnt To Be A Dog Trainer October 12, 2009
Crystal Lynn Martin
This book is beyond awesome... I actually sat down and read it in only a couple sittings. It is very plainly written, but it covers SO much! Nicole Wilde goes on to explain things that I never would have thought about on my own - that is until I run into it, because it is stuff for sure that I will eventually, and I just would not have been prepared! The book has pages of resources and recommended readings. I think this book is all around a great buy for someone looking to go into this field. She went right down into talking about advertising and contracts! I highly recommend this book!

Nicole explains very clearly all what you have to consider when you are trying to endeavor in dog training, considering not only dogs but also the owners of the dogs. Also Nicole provides very good tips about this wonderful dog world. I strongly recommend that every person trying to be a dog trainer should read this book for general information. This book does not tell you about training techniques. Just general info that you should consider.
