information, the emphasis of this fascinating book is on prevention rather
than cure. Follow Gwen Bailey's advice and you should have no trouble
with problems such as chewed shoes, pulling on the lead and aggression
when your dog is fully grown. Full-colour photographs illustrate subjects
such as socialisation, house-training, preventing biting and aggression,
training and many more.
