Michael W. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about the "step-by-step instructions" promise, but they actually walk you through each stage of reshaping aggression without skipping the hard parts. My rescue terrier stopped lunging at the mail carrier within three weeks of following the chapters in order.

Ryan ★★★★☆

The step-by-step chapters finally helped me understand why my rescue reacts to the mail carrier, and the training held up after a few weeks of practice. I'd give it five stars, but a couple of the later chapters repeat points made earlier, so it drags a bit near the end.
