Temprement Specific Methodology November 8, 2001
21 out of 25 found this review helpful
While Mc Mains principles are solid, the methods in this book are very dangerous for an amateur to attempt. This book should only be read as a piece of reference material in an attempt to better understand the K9 guardian.
Also these methods will only produce a stable guardian if the dog is working in agression comfortably. If the dog is not , and is working with too much defense, the result will be an animal that is dangerous to the general population. It is paramount to have the right dog for the job. The average pet type dog will not be able to handle Mc Mains' program.
 worse book I ever read... July 23, 2001

It's the worse book I ever read. -The book in White & black color. -The writer has written his own thoughts and experiences. -It's all about conversation. -And you **must** have those equipments to train your dog. -Very difficult to read and applying what the writer had written to your dog.
excellent book June 24, 2001

Joel McMains book, manstopper is an excellent book. The thing that suprises me is that first of all he stresses safety, for both the dog and the trainer. He also emphasizes that not all dogs are up to being protection trained. I do however recommend that your dog first be trained using his other book "Dog Logic". My german shepard is only 4 months old which is not quite old enough for protection training, but when she is old enough she will be unstoppable. This book is highly recommended.
Raising a killer February 22, 2001

This will probably sell a lot more copies now that it's been revealed that the owners of the Presa Canarios that ripped out that woman's throat in California had been trained using this book. Drug dealers, survivalists, criminals and others will find it very instructional since it carefully details how to turn a dog into a killing machine. If you have any doubts, read about what happened to the young, strong athlete who fell preytto a Manstopper trained dog.....
