Summary: Explain the relation between the two types of trainig
Review: This is great book for the people that want to make a conection between obedience and agility. It puts the obedience training to good use and shows the differences between the two types of training. It also contains great info on positioning during the exercises. Also gives diferent comands used for each exercise so you can choose the one that fits you better. Is a really good book and very easy to read. The chapter dedicated to building the equipment is great. I already use some of the instructions and the jumps came out perfect.
