 Illustrates a great training method Jun 02, 2007
By J. B Kraft
"lonestargazer"
I have trained two dogs with their methods and owned the book since the original version, but this beautiful, well made, production really makes it easy to understand exactly what you are supposed to be doing with your dog. The dog training part is set up in easy chapters that you can replay and focus on, if necessary.
It is a nice production with peaceful and beautiful landscapes and relaxing music that make it a really gentle and peaceful DVD to watch with any dog lover, as it really emphasizes the companionship that is the very essence of all that we love of dogs.

 IF $60.00 isn't anything to you..... Aug 10, 2008
By T. Westenhaver
This is a nice DVD to watch for the scenery, music, philosophy of the monds, etc. Only the 2nd part of the 2nd DVD covers actual dog training in some detail. I personally love German Shepherds and there are a lot of them in this DVD and this is the ONLY reason I don't regret buying this DVD.
If you want a detailed and practical "how to" DVD then purchase: Your Puppy 8 weeks to 8 Months. I hope this helps anyone.

Fantastic video Dec 30, 2007
By Justin Opinion
I have read the monk's books until they are dog eared (pun intended), and this DVD is a great extension to the books. The visual examples are most helpful - being able to watch the monks train in action! I understand that the monks of New Skete do not receive any revenue from this DVD, which I think is a shame, but I still recommend it as a supplement to their books.

If you've read their books, skip this DVD Apr 26, 2010
By Lynn Massimo
I read The Monks of New Skete, The Art of Raising a Puppy and let me say I think that book was amazing, thorough, was the best of the half dozen puppy books I've read. But about this video, I feel this video doesn't add any additional training info that wasn't already in the book. There are 2 DVDs, the first one is essentially about the Monk's philosophical approach to raising dogs. The second DVD continues this philosophy and then finally, finally in the very last section there is some actual training demonstrations that lasts about 20 minutes. But is is the SAME training material that is covered in the book as well.
I gave the video 4 stars because if you haven't read The Monks of New Skete, The Art of Raising a Puppy book, getting this DVD is a good idea. If you've read the book, my advice is to skip this DVD.

 Good Books, Bad Video Jul 07, 2010
By DC
The Monks of New Skete have some very well writen BOOKS with really good information. I highly recommend their books. The video or CD "Raising Your Dog" by "The Monks of New Skete" was done by "Atmosphere Entertainment", NOT by "The Monks of New Skete". THE MONKS DO NOT MAKE A PENNY ON THIS VIDEO. ALL money goes to Atmosphere Entertainment. Because of this greedy company taking advantage of the Monks, nobody should be buying or selling this video. Shame on You! For more info go to the Monks website at [...] (they have a statement on their website about this matter). Support the Monks, not A.E who did a BAD JOB in making this video.
