5 out of 5 stars The greatest book for raising a puppy   August 5, 2006

I bought the first edition of this book some, maybe, 14-15 years ago and used it in raising puppies. I gave that one to someone and am getting a new puppy in September. The book is recommended by the breeder of German Shepherd Dogs, and we are revisiting the book. IT IS WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!! Don't raise a puppy without this book!


1 out of 5 stars Please do not buy this book   August 1, 2006

Until I read culture clash I thought this book was probably mostly ok, if not someone superstitious. Since then I have realized that this book is more dangerous then good. The ideas in this book are mostly baseless, the methods in this book may "work", but they are definitely not the best, and can be very damaging do some breeds.

Please, if looking to buy a book, get culture clash first, then get this. You will then realize what I'm talking about.

Buy this book before you pick out your puppy - it has excellent tips for picking out the perfect dog. This is the best training book I used for my dog. She is amazingly well behaved!

I raise Aussies, and just recently had a litter. I asked all my puppy buyers to get this book before they took a puppy home. I even gave my copy to one who did not have time to get one! It is great for raising delightful dogs and answers many of the questions all dog owners have. Thanks Monks for writing such a helpful book, and allowing us to raise great dogs!


5 out of 5 stars A must have for any puppy owner!!!   May 3, 2006

This book is a must get for anyone who plans to get a puppy!!! It has clear step by step instructions on how to pick out a good breeder, a great pup, and how to properly raise your new family member so he or she can be a life long companion. This book has problem solving techniques for every stage your new puppy will go through. I cannot rave enough about this book. The way I see it, it should come with a guarentee because after reading this you'll never return it!
