What does everyone think of this tape? It seems pretty pricey, but is it worth it?

If you are talking about the 3 DVD's let me put it this way: If you train with the West/Gibbons method it's cheap. If you do not train this way and are not really interested in training the West/Gibbons silent method it will too expensive for you.

I (and a lot of others) think it's great. It's like going to their seminar but you can watch it over and over.

I think it'd be worth it even if you're not a die-hard Westie.

There are a lot of little things that can be picked up and applied across the board that will make one a better trainer.

Best regards,

The West/Gibbons DVD is worth the bucks IMO.. This is a simple method of training but for some reason it can be hard to explain. The DVD is 6 hours long and really shows alot of the method. It will help people to learn this way of training if that is what they want.

I just ordered the videos and cant wait to see them. I also ordered the new Dave Walker book. I didnt think the price was to high. they are priced about at what other training dvd's are and they are longer than most. I willbe able to say if the content is good in a few days.

though they have done alot for many
I have seen more success with people and their dogs through the Delmar, Rick and Ronnie smith methods

Walker's book is good, I just finished it.

Yes Walker's book was excellent. one of the best books I have read on dog training. very detailed and easy to understand.

Just wanted to let you know that I got the dvd's and they are woth every penny. after watching them I am very confident I can train my dog. it puts everything you have read into action and it makes it more clear. I would definatley suggest them especially if you are new to training like I am. good luck.

TMNoe, I may have missed the link, but where did you find these dvds? Also how much are they? I've seen Bill Gibbons train dogs(actually trained my first dog) and think he is a great trainer.
