The Perfect Puppy

Probably no such thing but......I've just ordered this book by Gwen Bailey from Amazon in preparation for our new puppy I didn't bother with a book for Harvs

Has anyone else got this book? Any good? The reviews seemed quite good just wondering what other people who have this book think of it

Re: The Perfect Puppy

Fan Flippin Tastic book, trained both my GSD's using these methods and Chance was an incredibly happy and obedient dog for all his 13 years now Henrick seems to be following in his footsteps. If I bred dogs I would insist potential owners read this book before collecting their pup.

Re: The Perfect Puppy

Definetely recommend it. We also went to the Puppy School training classes. She trains the trainer and they use her methods.

Re: The Perfect Puppy

The more recent one is slightly different (more updated training methods), and the better one to get, I have had both, one for each dog.
