"Would I recommend this text as an addition to a clinic library?Absolutely. As a quick reference and a great synopsis of behavioralproblems, it's tough to beat." (The Canadian VeterinaryJournal, December 2008) "An extremely detailed overview of 64 of the most commonbehavior problems, including 22 types of aggression. Despiteits ambitious content, the book lives up to its 'five minute'claim. This is impressive considering that many training booksdevote hundreds of pages to one of these subjects. Forbreeders, rescue organizations or anyone normally engaged inadvising pet owners about training and behavior, it's well worththe price." (DogWorld) "This book will help the veterinarian provide guidance toclients on the myriad of behavioral problems presented to thepractice. A CD-ROM with behavior handouts rounds out the usefulnessof this book. ... Well organized and thorough. I recommend itfor any clinic library." (Veterinary InformationNetwork) "A manual perfect for practicing vets and college-levelstudents." (Midwest Book Review)
