Book Description

This dog training book has been written from the dogs’ perspective with plenty of humor mixed in with a serious message on setting the scene and being prepared for any challenges you might face in training a puppy dog

From the Back Cover

This book is based around first years’ life of a real dog called Elvis and his mate Sgrwff, from the dog’s own perspective. Elvis explains the dog training challenges that he has encountered and some of the simple methods and techniques used to get him to where he is today.

Dog training is highly important for all dogs and puppies no matter what breed as they all need to fit into a hierarchy and know where they stand. The techniques used for training a dog have been applied in a persistent and non aggressive way with a view to having a friendly, non aggressive, happy and confident social adult Doberman which has been achieved.

It provides some advice on the type of dog to go for explaining their characteristics and needs as it is important for any prospective dog owner to look themselves in the eye and ask themselves if they can really accommodate a new dog before they start.

The process of training a puppy involves a number of things including toilet training, how to behave around other people, animals and so on. Most of this is down to the environment which the owner for training a dog, for example socialization and nurturing plays a very important part and is well covered in this book.

This book explains how to train a puppy with simple easy to follow steps broken down into their own Chapter which any new or potential dog owner should be able to pick up and apply to their own puppy or dog training and general upbringing.

There are many dog training how to manuals out there, I bet there are few from the dog itself!

5.0 out of 5 stars Helped with my new puppy December 22, 2012
By Mr Nerd

I just got a puppy and well first off, I wish I had got this book beforehand. It has an amazing section on what different breeds tend to be like to help you pick the right one for you. But Scruffles is already home with me so we are committed. This book has been helpful in helping me to teach him right from the start. We've still hit some bumps in the road, but with this book I think we'll get there!

5.0 out of 5 stars Before you buy that puppy... December 22, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a very useful little book for anyone thinking about getting a puppy. Starts off very cute with the forward "written" by one of the author's pooches, and continues in a good natured and slightly humorous take on dog ownership throughout.

The selection of an appropriate breed can make or break the relationship, and this book will give you some great tips on how much activity the different breeds need, their affection or working tendencies and sizes which will be very useful if you don't already know what kind of dog you want.

Also includes some excellent information on training puppies to get rid of bad habits including common problems such as peeing, barking, biting, and jumping. If you want to have a great relationship with your new dog, this book will get you started.
