Kids with a dog in the family will LOVE THIS book. TONS of activities for kids & dogs: dog-centered crafts for kids (making a dog toy, dog treats, photo frame, dog scrap book & more), new games to teach your dog (ever heard, "Mom/Dad, Lucky won't fetch the ball for me" -- Lucky's BORED with that game, that's WHY!!) PLUS easy tricks to teach your pup, lots of illustrations, birthday & holiday ideas, rainy-day movies your kids AND dogs love. Explains how to teach basic dog obedience clearly & simply enough for a child of 7-10 to understand (and teach!!): sit, down, stay, come, heel, off & drop it. A full page of websites for kids with dogs. Why not save some money & get your kids involved in doggy-grooming? (brushing, bathing, cleaning ears & brushing teeth!) Mom-recommended: my kids LOVED this book :)
