Re: Book Recommendation - Please Add your Favorite!
have any of you guys ever heard of: the German Shepherd Dog Guidebook? i have it and it does have a lot of info on GSD. it wouldnt be my all- time favorite, i just thought of it. my really all time favorite book that has nothing to do with dogs is the whole Harry Potter series. i dont know if you can post books with no dogs in it on here, but i did anyway!

Re: Book Recommendation - Please Add your Favorite!
I finally finished Advanced Schutzhund and The Dog Listener. I prefer Advanced Schutzhund's philosophy on training. But other than the extent of the obedience training and control, these books are similar in the philosophy of not having to hurt or intimidate a dog into obeying you.

Re: Book Recommendation - Please Add your Favorite!
Oh! Oh! Oh! I loved THOR [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]. Presently I'm reading THE GOOD DOG, a childrens book by AVI. Not a GSD fiction, but a dog book. Don't tell me the ending! As for Non-fiction, I'm also re-reading THE ART OF RAISING A PUPPY, by the Monks ... and DOG TRICKS, by Haggerty and Benjamin. I just love Carol Lea Benjamin's comics!

Re: Book Recommendation - Please Add your Favorite!
[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/multiblob.gif[/img] I have been reading a new book out which is great. In Focus by Deborah Jones & Judy Keller. It is one of the better books I have read lately. It is about a working relationship with our dogs.

Re: Book Recommendation - Please Add your Favorite!
Several years ago I purchased "German shepherds for Dummies". I really enjoyed this book. It gave a great overview of many things GSD: training, breeders, working vs showlines and much more. I think it is a good starting point for anyone interested in the GSD.
