Only Angels: How to Raise and Train the Perfect Sighthound
REVIEWS
I have read both your (training) books and I
totally agree with your philosophy of training dogs. Even before I
read your books, I utilized some of your techniques, especially
praise. I do not plan to turn my lovely Sky into a trick dog but I
believe that it is essential that dogs learn basic commands and are
capable of behaving appropriately. Thank you for writing these two
wonderful books.

I
received my Only Angels book and it is better than I even imagined! You
guys did a terrific job on it. Very informative and beautiful.

I have read ONLY ANGELS through twice and keep referring to it
as needed. It is a wonderful book and deals with the things that are
encountered with sighthounds. I have embraced the Affection Training
since reading your book, and have loaded tons of physical and voice
praises whenever she does what she is supposed to do. That has made a
difference in her bonding with me.

Only Angels covers, in
detail, a special method of training specially adapted to the Saluki's
and other sighthound's intelligent and sensitive natures: the Affection
Training Method. It will take you step by step through the process of
learning
to communicate with your hound, encouraging him to comprehend your
wishes
as you give him commands, and then working on specific areas of
behavior. The results of diligently applying this innovative and gentle
training method will be an obedient, well socialized, and safe hound.
Every sighthound owner who does not readily accept the old rumor that
these dogs are "difficult to train" should have this book. This revised
edition of Only Angels now incorporates the vital health, emergency
first aid and nutrition information from Saluki Secrets, making Only
Angels a complete guide to raising a healthy, well behaved hound who is a
member of the family. In use since 2000 with the STOLA's rescue hounds. All proceeds from the sale of Only Angels are donated to STOLA Saluki Rescue.
