Mediocre
By Victoria Montgomery
First, let me preface this by the disclaimer that I've grown up around dogs all my life, and participated closely in their training with my family and been to several obedience classes that adopted varying techniques.
I got this book primarily because I recently got a puppy who is more dominant and I was interested in her take on the "teaching your dog respect" claims.
It does have some decent basic training advice in it. It gives a ton of different command examples, explains why you need different but similar commands for things like "drop" vs "give" and "stay" vs "wait", but honestly, I found the approach outdated. For example: if your dog eliminates in the house she advocates dragging the dog back there, sticking his nose *near* it (not "in", at least...) and scolding him/her. This is is a seriously outdated training method that does nothing except confused the dog and give them bad associations of you. I am not opposed to corrections, don't get me wrong. However, if you don't catch the dog IN THE ACT, a correction is useless. Especially with a puppy.. they have the attention span of a gnat; they won't understand what you're correcting them about.
Also, while it is a 337pg book, if you download the pdf it is in large type with many graphics and spaces (no clue about the paperback). Another annoyance to me is that she spends about 1/6 of the book suggesting you purchase other things: her other books, other people's books, equipment she recommends, etc. (all of which there are hyperlinks to in the pdf). I appreciated her suggestions, to a degree... but her book was $19, she shouldn't be spending that large of a percentage of it telling me what else to spend money on... There was a lot of "this is important, but I'm not going to go into detail here. Buy this book." So I read through it in about 4 hours, maybe less.
Her approach to teach respect is pretty common sense, imo. Basically... be consistent and follow through. If you tell your dog to do something make sure he does it after the first instruction (once he knows it, of course). If he's being unruly, correct him. Make sure you use appropriate corrections (not so harsh that you're traumatizing him, but strong enough to get his attention/make something uncomfortable via loud noises, leash jerks, water sprays, etc.)Don't baby your dog or reward/comfort them for undesirable behaviors like fear, or adopt a "well, that was good enough" approach. Don't let him tell you what to do, and always demand something of the dog before giving something to the dog (a sit, for instance).
The "100 words" vary from vital knowledge to fun tricks to completely useless. Of course she covers things such as "sit" "stay" "leave it" "heel", etc. But a lot of her "words" are seriously reaching. For example: I have no desire to teach my dog the word "popcorn". Other words I found completely useless were: squirrel, birdies, doggy (meaning other dogs), puppy (for other puppies, which are different from other dogs!), kitty (though this could be useful if you have a cat, of course), cheese, etc.
SO MANY were also repetitious. For example, words 57-62 are: "Are you hungry?" "Want to eat?" "Want some food?" "Want your breakfast?" "Want your supper?" and "Want some water?". Personally, I can't fathom why a dog needs to know *all* of these, or why they came before grooming commands like "open", when the rest of the book seems to suggest that commands are listed somewhat by training order/importance. To me, it's enough to say "Food time" and have him know to go where he gets fed...which dogs pick up pretty naturally.
Then the last eight were for agility equipment. Which can be useful, but if you have no plans to do agility... not so much.
IMO, if you can't think of 100 different and useful commands then you have no business writing a book called "Teach your dog 100 English words" Make it 50 words.
To me, everything worth knowing in this book was either common sense, or things that can be found in free articles/youtube videos online... except for her personal opinions on the best leashes, books on subjects, etc. And, honestly, there are other dog trainer's whose opinions I would respect much more.
I would suggest rather than spending your money on this book you invest in a clicker (Studies have shown that dogs trained with clicker/marker training learned 50% faster than dogs who were just praised and treated because you can precisely time and "mark" the behavior) and spend a few hours on youtube/other dog training sites (Leerburg has some free videos, I personally really respect Michael Ellis' style, or dogmantics.com if you prefer non-intimidation techniques which can be awesome, but in my experience not as effective with dominant dogs), or even just google... AND sign up for obedience classes so you can get feedback in person from a professional. But that said, DO set up a plan, stick to it, and enforce. Once a dog learns a word, obeying you can't be optional if you want a trained dog.

Book is great! Consistency is key.
By juliem
I am adding this review simply because the other review gives it a one star based on the weird pricing. I agree with her - weird thing going on with Amazon. I got the same deal on author's website as earlier this year couldn't even find copy on Amazon. To review the book itself - it's great! Some of the advice is contrary to things previously learned (now unlearning) in various obedience courses at pet stores and such. We've had several dogs, right now have 2 and these tips are working well for us. They are both larger,active dogs and we have been complimented on their behavior. I can assure you that I do not have loads of time to work on this as a busy mom who works part-time. Nonetheless, we have seen great improvement in our dogs and enjoyment of them with improved behaviors. We are still introducing new commands and it's going well. The techniques are also easy for our young daughters to follow through with which leads to great consistency - the key.

Title should be: "100 ways you could kill your dog"
By Peter Gitta
I was a little disappointed with this book. The training methods seem reasonable-no problem there. But the author's obsession with every single thing in the universe being a mortal threat to your dog, you almost need to be on Xanax just to read it without having a panic attack.
(Don't spay too early or it'll get cancer....for heaven's sake don't spray your dandelions or you'll kill your dog....don't leave kitchen appliances laying around where they could fall off the counter, hit your dog in the head and kill it...commercial dog food is no better than poison...)
And my biggest peeve: According to Ms. Welton, if you have a job, you can't own a dog. Period.
I'll read the training parts, but her care advice is over the top, paranoid, and way too heavy on the guilt.
