TRAINING YOU TO TRAIN YOUR DOG (Saunders; Doubleday) is the obedience standard (and she had poodles). Some of her training ideas seem unnaturally severe. She was my aunt's godmother and I was always partial to her and had a soft spot in my heart for her book, but now that I've gotten back into obedience training, I much prefer Strickland's approach. And the clarity of her writing. I have the 1952 edition of the Saunders, and the clothing is a real hoot. I don't know if there is a newer edition - surely there must be. If so, perhaps some of the draconian techniques ("punish your dog") have been rethought. By the picture on the cover here, however, this book is the same edition (might be the only edition there every was!)
A better obedience book, I think, despite family loyalty, is Strickland's EXPERT OBEDIENCE TRAINING FOR DOGS.

When I was given my very first dog, my grandmother--an AKC breeder and trainer--gave me this text. It was wonderful: clear and concise. It's central concept I have found to be true: dog obedience so often depends on the owner's consistency in commands, and understanding the dog. This book helps both!
