A must have for new dog owners November 14, 2003
14 out of 14 found this review helpful
This book is a must have for all dog owners. This book is easy to read and easy to understand. It gives very useful insight and ideas for raising a new puppy. It is broken down in developmental stages. And also gives suggestions and ideas for training you new dog. I have read other books on new puppies and this one is the best. This should be a book breeders give to all who buy their pups no matter the breed.

How to Raise a Puppy You Can Live With March 2, 2003
16 out of 17 found this review helpful
This book is amazing. I think it is a must have for all dog owners, and a must send with your puppies. Everything the average puppy owner needs to know is in this book. If you're just looking for a puppy, read this book first. One of the best books on puppies I've ever read.
Oustanding and informative March 2, 2003

Oustanding and informative book, especially for the first time puppy owner. Explains in detail the emotional, physical and social development of a puppy. If more future dog owners knew what to expect in advance, they would be better prepared, and there would be fewer dogs in shelters.

 Okay, but better one is out there January 16, 2003

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.
