Customer Reviews

I can LIVE with my puppy

Orginally, I purchased 3 books on training new puppies. "How to Raise A Puppy You Can Live with" is the only book I would recommend. And I do highly recommend it. I found it to be interesting and descriptive, but also an easy read, with language for the lay audience. The book details the growth of a puppy, at which ages to expect certain results, training methods at different age levels, and methods to punish a puppy without being cruel (like ignoring your puppy, which gets them begging for your love and acceptance). The book is filled with tons of advice on situations that will be encountered along the way of raising your puppy.

the best out there

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.

How To Raise a Puppy You Can Live With

This is the best book for those planning to bring a new bundle of fur into their family and for those who already own a dog. All breeders should include this informative book as part of their package with the puppy. It is packed with information, but not an overwhelming read. I would not raise a dog without it.

An excellent book! I've recommended it several times.

Originally my vet recommended this book. Subsequently, I have shared the recommendation with several soon to be or relatively new dog owners. I highly recommend this book, especially to those who are new to the world of dogs.

The information was outstanding.

This book had everything any person needs to know if they are getting a puppy. The issues it touches are ones I've never seen touched before in a format so easy to understand. It's invigorating that someone actually put it into words and published it. This is the puppy bible. For anyone getting, or considering getting a puppy this is the first book they need to read.
