Kyra's Canine Conditioning: Peak Performance • Injury Prevention • Coordination • Flexibility • Rehabilitation (Volume 8) (Dog Tricks and Training, 8) Paperback – February 5, 2019

For the seller: Used book was in great condition and shipping was faster than expected.For the author: Canine Conditioning is fabulous! Each exercise has clear, concise directions and photos of every step. The text explains which muscles are being worked and the benefits of the exercise. The book has four sections of increasing difficulty to challenge your dog. I bought this book to help my senior dog recover some of the fun from his "glory days," but I wish I had known about it from the time he was a pup!

Easy to follow instruction. I love, that it provides the why and not just the how. I use it as a regular reference when working with my dogs.

This book is very helpful when earning CCF (Canine Conditioning Fitness) titles! I suggest using it alongside the free masterclass that can be found on her Do More With Your Dog website. The website offers ways to substitute equipment with things around your house and also has a discussion section for each skill where you can ask a certified instructor for help or suggestions for acceptable substitutions.My dogs are in the middle of earning their CCF titles, but I plan to continue their conditioning on a regular basis after the titles are earned. This book is going to be a good tool to keep handy in my dog training space at home - easy to reference to make sure I'm putting my dogs in the correct positions and working the right muscles.I didn't think I needed this book at first because of the free information on the website, but I'm glad I ended up buying the book too. The 2 compliment each other very well and each offers things the other doesn't.

If you are new to canine conditioning, it is a good book to get started. However, I know a lot about canine conditioning and rehabilitation and did not learn or find anything to further my education from this book. It was colorful but one does not need fancy equipment to help a dog gain strength and improve overall conditioning. In fact, one can use many things they may already have around their house. It was laid out well and had some good information for the average pet owner.

Great techniques to help dogs condition their bodies. I got it used and it wasn’t beat up too much! Perfect!

Just received the book yesterday, and today it got really cold outside here with lots of snow. Perfect day to do some canine conditioning with Kyra's new book. We had so much fun, and my three dogs are happy and tired. it shows you with each exercise what muscles are worked/strengthened. You will need some tools to help with the exercises, but some can easily be substituted with things you already have at home. Or check your local second hand store for many ideas there. Love the ideas in the book!

Its what I wanted

Really enjoying this book. It is way more than just pictures of tricks! It has the step-by-step beautiful photos that Kyra’s books are known for, but also teaches you a lot about canine structure, muscles, and fitness. I do performance sports with my dogs and want them to be fit and flexible their whole lives. This book taught me a lot about how realize that goal.
