The Ideal Puppy

3/5 ( ratings)

Here's the ideal advice manual for people who would love to have a dog, but are afraid of making a mistake in purchase, housebreaking, and general canine care. In short, here's the perfect book for beginners! The author starts with advice on finding a good breeder or reputable pet store -- avoiding unscrupulous puppy farms and disreputable dealers. Readers then learn how to cope with the important and sometimes difficult first night home, a time when most puppies cry for their mothers and littermates. Instruction that follows deals with house-breaking, coping with chewing, assimilating puppies and children in the same household, controlling barking, living with energetic dogs, and much more. A special chapter gives advice to experienced owners who choose difficult breeds, or find themselves having to deal with special behavioral problems. The book has attractive color photos on most pages, plus a wealth of quick-reference tips in eye-catching sidebars.
