The book is user-friendly; the training approach is puppy-friendly

Dogs are beloved family members in more than 40 million U.S. homes, but raising a puppy can be a challenge, even for the most patient and loving human "parents." Now, the author of the classic DogPerfect applies her successful training approach to puppies–and gives frazzled puppy owners the answers they need. PuppyPerfect explains how to develop a nurturing and mutually respectful relationship with a puppy, which is the key to getting him to behave properly. After an introduction to puppy psychology, personality, breed differences, and training tools, the book focuses on step-by-step lessons and problem-solving. It’s a must-read for new "parents" who want that adorable, but far from perfect, puppy to become a lovable friend for life.
