Puppy Savvy: The Pocket Guide to Raising Your Dog Without Going Bonkers

Is your puppy biting, chewing, barking, jumping up, peeing indoors, or pulling on leash? Using the kind methods and humor she has shared with her dog-training clients since 1999, Barbara Shumannfang helps you solve your puppy problems. No bribes, no bullying. Learn to customize your training and socialization plan according to your pup's personality. Learn to use your pup's natural needs as powerful motivators to build good habits. "This is the one training book I wish could go home with every new shelter adoption. This fast, funny, and thorough guide for new puppy owners contains humane, intelligent and effective answers to all the common questions that arise when someone has a new puppy. If every breeder and animal shelter could hand out this book along with every puppy, there'd be fewer problem dogs and far fewer dogs surrendered to animal shelters." --Sue Sternberg, Innovator in the field of shelter dog welfare, author, and creator of the Dog Park Assistant iPhone App and GreatDogProductions.com
