What to expect
You're getting a puppy and are keen to get started - but having helped thousands of owners raise their perfect canine companions, I can confidently say that obedience alone doesn't create great dogs. Leadership does.
When owners step into the role of a calm, confident and loving leader, everything else falls into place. That's why this book offers clear, proven, easy‑to‑follow steps to help you choose the right puppy and become the leader they need from day one.
You'll learn how to:
- Bring your puppy home and set them up for success
- Establish great manners and socialise your puppy
- Reinforce wanted behaviours and calmly interrupt unwanted ones
- Teach the fundamentals of obedience, including sit, stay, come, and walking to heel
- Get back on track if things don't go to plan
Follow these steps and you'll raise a confident, responsive dog who's a joy to live with. This is where the journey to raising your perfect puppy begins!
