Fabulous training tips for every dog...and every dog owner! July 11, 2000 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Martens' energetic style of training the pet *** and the owner*** is fresh,logical, easy to follow, and something other trainers overlook. Her approach of people-training is essential and she's taught *me* to have patience with my pup, making the training process all the easier. It is obvious that she has a real passion for what she does and that she does it well. The step-by-step instructions, hints for owners of both new and adopted/older dogs, and the stories of how her celebrity clients have overcome their dog-training hurdles are fantastic. Not only is this method effective, the book is fun, too! Paws for a Minute is perfect for anyone starting a new adventure with his/her first puppy, and it is a great refresher course for anyone who has had a dog previously and has just taken in another.
Outstanding July 5, 2000 Majid Jourabchi (Santa Fe, NM USA) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is an outstanding book in every aspect. It is well written, funny, informative and most of all very useful. Ms. Martens approach to not only train the dogs but their owners is very effective. My black Labrador is already behaving better and now I look forward to walking him down the street to my local coffee store!

This is a must buy for ALL dog owners or for anyone planning on getting a dog. If your dog scratches you furniture or bolts out the door the book gives good advice as to fixing the problem forever. It really helped me control my 2 year old Rotty. Now Mr. Growls is the perfect pet!
