Will Napoleon Hill's Estate Come After Me?

I'm thinking about titling my next dog training book: "Think And Train Dogs"
Serious question: Do you think Napoleon Hill's estate will come after me, legally?

I think you are okay.

If you called it something like "Think and Grow Bitch" about breeding dogs, I can see a possible problem (though this would still probably be okay as a parody).
Being concerned about "Think and Train Dogs" is, to me, sort of like saying that "How to Win Man's Best Friend and Influence Dogs" might bother the Dale Carnegie people.
I doubt if anyone will be troubled by it.
OTOH, "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Dogs" might not work.
"Psychocaninetics" is also probably out.

My first book I released to the Kindle market was: "The Dog Training System That Never Fails"
... which I modeled (the title) after, "The Success System That Never Fails".
That one's done pretty well, so I figure I'll stick with the strategy.
I like both of your ideas: Think and Grow Bitch; And: The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Dog Owners.

Actually, it would be the other way around.

I heard on Jerry Springer that men are dogs.
