The Perfect
Puppy -
ISBN 0600585816
Summary:
The Perfect
Puppy is for puppy owners, or would-be owners, who want to know how to
bring their puppy up to be a happy, well-behaved and friendly adult dog.
Anti-social behaviour in dogs is often blamed on owners, but many are
not irresponsible or uncaring, they simply have insufficient knowledge.
This book provides that knowledge. Containing the most up-to-date bahavioural
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.
