I just got a new puppy
so am in the throws of puppy training....what that means is that I am
reading again. I am adding some books that I just read and recommend.
For you new puppy buyers...............This is one of
the best things around for a quick reference guide. It is called
the Ultimate Puppy Toolkit. I am thinking to
add this to the things I give new puppy buyers. I am also trying
to write (ha ha) a pamphlet on the first weeks with your puppy...the
working title is "What the Books Don't Tell You". It will be practical
tips to some everyday stuff. It amazes me as I read these books
that Potty Training always seems to be in the middle of the books.
If you are like me that is one of the first things to start training
from the moment your puppy comes home...and basically they all say to
crate train. Good idea but what happens when it is time for the
pup to get out of the crate? So will try my writing skills to see
if I can help new puppy owners either learn fresh or have a refresher
course in New Puppy. Wish me luck.
