Summary: 5 Stars
I am a breeder & I give this book out with all my puppies! I did MUCH research on MANY books to find this one. It is the best out there to give to all my puppy buyers whether they are first-time puppy owners or have had dogs all their lives. After I picked this book, I found Dr. Threlfall DVM of OSU (world re-known for his work with dogs) also recommends this one! It is very thorough, leaving out nothing, from choosing a puppy/breeder to care & training, to adulthood. LOTS of pics!Book Review: The only puppy book you'll ever need
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the friendliest how-to book I've ever seen. For example, at the end of the semi-scientific chapter on how to test a puppy's personality and temperament, it points out that people have been raising puppies for thousands of years without formal tests. It instantly restored my faith in my home-grown skills while giving me more to think about. Read it at any depth.Book Review: Great book with good tips
Summary: 4 Stars
I ordered this amongst some other books. It gives short summaries in many areas of puppy behavior. It is easy to refer back to and I am referring back to it often. The behavioral problems section and dog signals using body language section are great, it gives good information about what the puppy means by doing these things and how to correct where needed.Book Review: A MUST READ for puppy owners!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is invaluable in the way it describes each stage of the puppy's development (both physical and psychological). It eqips you to answer the age-old question: Why is my puppy behaving this way???
Also, after reading this book, you will understand why you should always purchase your pup from a breeder ... and NEVER from a pet store.
