Reviews for The Holistic Dog
Rating: 3.5 out of 5 stars
3.5/5
2 ratings1 review
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5May be the title of the book and my lausy english made wrong expectations. Two thirds of the book are short stories, a quarter interviews and the very small rest some superficial ideas what a dog could need. I could not find any "holistic" advise to give my dog a satisfied life. Absolutely nothing concrete. A lot of normal Trainig-Books are much better.
Vielleicht haben der Titel des Buches gepaart mit meinem rudimentären Englisch falsche Erwartungen geweckt. Zwei Drittel des Buches sind Kurzgeschichten, ein Viertel Interviews and der winzige Rest oberflächliche vage Ansätze, was ein Hund eventuell braucht.Ich konnte keinen ganzheitlichen Ansatz finden um meinem Hund ein befriedigendes Leben zu geben. Absolut nichts greifbares, konkretes. Es gibt jede Menge normale Trainigsbücher für Hunde, die wenigstens Ideen liefern, um einem Hund ein zufriedenes Leben zu geben.
