How to Raise a Puppy You Can Live With Product Description

The 1981 edition (now out of print) of this little classic on puppy rearing was a word-of-mouth best seller. This revised and expanded edition benefits from an additional decade of observation of puppy behavior by its authors and includes effective, up-to-date methods for educating puppies to become good canine citizens. Along with Job Michael Evans’s The Evans Guide for House training Your Dog (Howell, 1987), this is must have reading for new puppy owners.

I read this book within a few days and it provided me with SO much information! At first I was overwhelmed, but afterwards I felt informed and confident to raise a well-behaved pet. The information is broken down into sections, based on age, which I found very helpful. You can browse back through those chapters periodically as your puppy grows. It also addressed different behaviors and personalities (both in the pup and person) and how training should differ. Overall, very helpful book that I will keep within reach for a while!

Good book for starters…, December 14, 2008

When I received this book, I realized it was not at all what I had been looking for. This book would have been great, had I bought it before I got my puppy. However, I’d had my little bundle of joy for a few weeks already, and was looking more for potty training, and training in general information. I must admit, I did read it, and learned quite a few new things, especially about behavior. I did skip the first half of the book though, as it did not pertain to us. It talks about how to prepare your home for when you get a puppy, and how to introduce them to the environment. If you haven’t gotten your puppy yet, this is a great first read.
