Everything you need to know about the crucial first months of your puppy's life. From the decision to adopt a puppy through the practical steps of choosing the right breed, preparing your home, caring for your new charge and practising basic obedience exercises, the Monks of New Skete offer clear, compassionate guidelines for raising a puppy. Renowned for breeding German shepherds, the Monks train their own dogs according to a unique programme based on understanding canine behaviour and enhancing the bond between dog and owner. This communion begins in puppyhood and is based on deep respect and affection. Improper care, poor training, or a lack of attention during the early months can lead to problem behaviours that become increasingly difficult to alter as your dog matures. By learning how to assert your dominance gently from the start, you'll build a lasting and loving relationship with your puppy.

good guide
A well organised guide to raising a puppy by people who clearly know puppies well and lovingly. As useful for the regular breeder/buyer of puppies as it is for the first-timer, with lots of practical points and reminders, well expressed and repeated throughout the book, and avoiding soppy language and excessive emotionalism. Well done.

a deserved classic
This is an enormously informative and insightful book for people who want to *know* their dogs. Thorough, detailed and full of wisdom. You can't go wrong with this one. And of course it's very practical.
