We love a good book on dog training and
Insider Training: Chester Gigolo’s Dog Training
Secrets Revealed sure is one such read. This
book is packed full of useful tips to help you
train your dog, written from the point of view
of the very smart dog Chester, a guru when
it comes to learning new tricks.
Author Christina Potter is a dog expert,
training dogs of different breeds for more
than 20 years, with many of her dogs
appearing on television shows, being used
in motion capture for video games, print
ads and much, much more. This experience
shows with several of her training ideas
that even had us thinking! Christina focuses
on positive reinforcement, which is PETS’
recommended style.
Overall, Insider Training: Chester Gigolo’s
Dog Training Secrets Revealed is a really
interesting read for those looking to take
their training up a notch or two in a simple
and sometimes humorous fashion.THE THE

The bright and colourful The 12th Dog is a great
read about Arlo the dog, a much beloved pet
with a passion for fi elding in cricket, with just
one big problem: he won’t give back the ball!
When the team has enough and makes him
sit on the sidelines, Arlo is determined to prove
to them that he is an essential part of the game
and the greatest cricketer of all.
This is a really sweet and funny read that
children will enjoy. The colourful illustrations
are eye-catching and bright and bound to
capture the attention of young readers, with the
focus on backyard cricket a nice change from
your run-of-the-mill books about owning a pet.
Overall, The 12th Dog is a great read for kids.REVIEWS
