"Great book. We actually took our dog to Mike Wombacher's class and this book was very helpful. (The classes were wonderful too) It is easy to read and very informative. It is funny and practical. The illustrations are clever too. Great gift if you can find it! Even Amazon runs out @ times!" -Phyllis Szal-smith
"This book goes right to what the owner needs, explains what you need to know and solves your problems asap. But it’s much more than that. It contains a systematic, rigorous and totally thorough approach to raising your puppy along with tons of photos that show you how to do everything. I read several training books before I found this book, and I wish I'd known about it when I first got my Goldendoodle pup. It would have saved me so much worry and guessing!" -Polecat

"This book is a must for all new puppy owners! It lets you know what to expect and correct actions before they become habits in your dog. I really wish I had this book with my past dogs as they would have been so much better behaved and we all would have been happier." -Duke
"Great book for first time puppy owners. Although I got it 7 yrs ago when I got my lab, I looked at many puppy advice books and articles and this book is clear, comprehensive and gives detailed good advice (some advice in other sources is subjective or just bad advice). The info I learned from this book I have used for 7 years (and for several dogs) to make my Labrador the best dog in the world." -Dax
"A perfect guide to the new puppy owner or owner-to-be. Well written and illustrated, and seemingly address every issue one experiences with a new puppy. I recommend reading it BEFORE bringing the puppy or grown dog home." -Ed
"Unbelievably useful information for new puppy parents. Even if you have had dogs for years, I promise you will learn things you didn't know." -Mo
