Customer Reviews

Have a Puppy? You need this book!

We have a new puppy and it is the first dog I have ever had. This book took all the panic, frustration, and questions out of trying to train our little guy. Now, two months later, he is a happy, obedient little dog that is a joy to have in our home. This book is amazing, easy to read and understand and if you do what the Doc says to do, it works wonders in your puppy's behavior.

A valuable tool for dog owners

Dr. Gates uses anecdotes and philosophy to convey the lessons he has learned from 35 years of practice. His techniques are natural but too often overlooked these days. A must read for all puppy owners.

A must have for new puppy parents!

Dr. Gates does a fantastic job of showing new puppy parents how to teach their puppy the concepts of trust and respect, which leads to self-control. What a unique and refreshing concept! He as great stories, and illustrations that bring his experiences to life and made it easy for my wife and I to apply these skills to our puppy. A fast read with incredibly valuable information. A must have investment in your relationship with your new family member.
