Bericht

"Would I recommend this text as an addition to a clinic library? Absolutely. As a quick reference and a great synopsis of behavioral problems, it's tough to beat." (The Canadian Veterinary Journal, December 2008)
"An extremely detailed overview of 64 of the most common behavior problems, including 22 types of aggression. Despite its ambitious content, the book lives up to its 'five minute' claim. This is impressive considering that many training books devote hundreds of pages to one of these subjects. For breeders, rescue organizations or anyone normally engaged in advising pet owners about training and behavior, it's well worth the price." (DogWorld)
"This book will help the veterinarian provide guidance to clients on the myriad of behavioral problems presented to the practice. A CD-ROM with behavior handouts rounds out the usefulness of this book. ... Well organized and thorough. I recommend it for any clinic library." (Veterinary Information Network)
"A manual perfect for practicing vets and college-level students." (Midwest Book Review)
