This book is literally overflowing with invaluable, realistic how-to information about safely working with aggressive dogs.

| Excellent Book!, April 16, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Vicki Stafford |
I run a small boarding kennel and I am also some what new to dog training, but not new to dogs. I do come across some dogs that have aggression problems in the kennels. This book is easy to understand and straight forward. I love the way it is laid out as the chapters are short and it gives you the sense that you are moving through the book quickly. This book gave me new skills to use and more knowledge about how to handle certain dogs.
Extremely well done Nicole! Thank you so much!

This may be the most comprehensive book available on dealing with aggression from a business perspective.
It covers methodolgy, has interview and questionnaire suggestions, legal and insurance information, and much, much more.
You need to know what you need to know about aggression, of course, but there is so much more to dealing with aggression cases and this book covers the everything else.
Thanks Nichole for a wonderful resource!
