A must before getting a puppy December 29, 2007 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I am only part of the way through the book but I've already learned so much about what to look for in a puppy and a breeder. There's a lot of sound and important advice in this book.
Great advice December 10, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I highly recommend this book to anyone getting a new dog. You can pick out specific chapters or read the whole book. It has great advice, and if you stick to the routine you'll see the results in your new companion.
A bit overwhelming September 13, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book made me feel a bit overwhelmed. It has been a while since I had a puppy and a dog trainer recommended this book. Dr. Dunbar says you need your puppy to do so many things before the puppy is three to four months old ( ex. Introduce the puppy to 100 people before its three months old ). My puppy was two months old. To make myself less overwhelmed I'm taking one thing at a time and as for the people, there trickling in. I think he means well, he just comes across the wrong way.
Must read for all considering a puppy July 20, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Dogs and humans alike would benefit greatly if potential dog owners would all read this book! Lots of vital information, well presented, a good read.
Very helpful for 1st time puppy owner June 2, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this book after reading several recommendations on AMAZON. The book was very informative as to painting a picture of what to expect with a new puppy. Some of Dunbar's recommendations are very unrealistic though. Such has having your dog introduced to many different people every day. Overall, I found it very useful.
