Summary: it's a dog's life in the city!
Comment: In this thorough guide, Brian Kilcommons & Sarah Wilson tell & show us in a profusion of photographs & readable language, how to do everything from housetraining a puppy - when the sidewalk is 40 floors below & she has to go now - to preventing Rover from barking in a thin-walled studio apartment - to saying goodbye to a beloved & noble longtime companion. Packed with treats of proven training tips, Metrodog is the book every dog owner in every metropolis must have. From Finding Your Metrodog - To The Apartment Puppy - To Hitting the Streets - to Inner-City Youth - to Smooth Sailing - to The Older Metrodog, with a good Resources Section & useful Index. I enjoyed making my way through the exercises, most of which our Buddy-dog has already been trained in for years - even if he's a country cousin! Do consider this book the perfect gift when someone you know in the city gets a dog in their life. It will definitely give them some idea of what a city dog's life will be like!

Summary: A Practical Dog Training Book For Busy City People
Comment: Starting out with a new puppy can be daunting enough if you have a lovely, private backyard. When you're twenty stories above the new pup's "toilet" area, it can be frustrating, exhausting, confusing, messy, and did I mention frustrating?
In their new book "Metrodog" Brian Kilcommons and Sarah Wilson guide the dog owner through every aspect of living happily with a dog in any city on this planet. The information provided spans the life of a dog in the city, from puppyhood right on through adulthood.
Worried about leaving your dog home alone? Don't, because Metrodog has tons of information that will keep your dog safe and happy at home.
Afraid to take your dog to one of the city's public dog runs? Don't be! Reading Metrodog, you'll feel as though you've had a private tour of the busiest city dog runs. You'll be forearmed with tips that will help your dog and you fit in.
Dog training books can be dry. Not this one. It is such an easy read, enjoyable and with personal stories about the authors' dogs and real-life Metrodogs they've known. And, it is full of concrete information and facts, breed specific, age specific guidance and tons of photographs illustrating the prose.
Another dog book that won't just end up on my bookshelf. Metrodog is staying right out by my telephone for those emergency call I get from new dog owners who can't figure out how to get their puppy into the elevator, or back upstairs after their walk!

Summary: Metrodog: Not Just For City Folk
Comment: But particularly helpful for those of us who take on the highly rewarding challenge of sharing our busy city lives with a canine companion. It may just make you want to grab your dog and move to the big city! Useful for ALL dog owners and a NECESSITY for urban dog owners. Great photographs. Accessible to the average dog owner but with interesting, unique information for seasoned dog-lovers.
I am a HUGE MetroDog fan. There's advice in there that I've NEVER seen anywhere else, and I have 2+ shelves worth of dog books in my house. Nowhere else discusses how to secure your dog safely while you grab a cup of coffee, or how to hail a cab with your dog, for example. One of the most *practical* books - and not just for city dwellers. Suburbanites without fenced yards or even just full-time workers will find much useful info.
