Okay, but better one is out there January 16, 2003 142 out of 151 found this review helpful
This book was an okay book. It covers all major areas of puppy development, looks at training and problems in an elementary way, and uses nice black and white pictures for illustration. I find that it does rely rather heavily on food as reward. I liked this book better than the Monks of Skete's Art of Raising a puppy because it's more practical, yet I think that you are even better of if you purchase Kilcommens Good owners, great dogs. Though a bit more expensive, you get what you pay for. To me, dog training books need to have the potential to be used daily as a guide. I consulted this book maybe 3 times, while I use the Kilcommens book almost every other day.
Covers it all! July 8, 2002 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This book is a great "dog bible"! It covers everything you need to know, from selecting a puppy to breeding it, and everything in between. It is easy and interesting to read, and is clear and concise, along with having great advice! I would recomend this book to anyone thinking about getting a dog!
the best out there April 4, 2002 68 out of 72 found this review helpful
I am a novice dog owner and I have to say this book has helped me tremendously with the most important period of the dog's life- puppyhood. This is my favorite "puppy guide" in my large library of puppy and dog training books I have bought over the last year. All I can say is wow! If you have been searching for a good book so that you can raise a new family member and best friend look no further because this is the book for you. It is extremely imformative and easy to understand, a must for anyone bring a puppy into their home.

Should be required reading for anyone acquiring a puppy. Excellent information, well written, easy reading. Would be great to have this book given to puppy buyers.

There are 3 Books I have read that I recommend to my puppy buyers, all my friends, or even people I have talked to with Dogs. =)) THIS is ONE of them! These authors cover very important socialization periods in a pups life, they cover in depth advice and examples of socialization, what shoudl and shouldnt be done, and how it will afffect a dog for the rest of their life. They cover all aspects of puppy training, absolutely excellent book! Id buy them for gifts EASILY for others. Kristen Hoy http://www.angelfire.com/az3/sereniteecollies/Index.html
