Description: FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE Welcoming Your Puppy from Planet Dog by Kathy Callahan "An innovative, engaging guide that teaches dog owners how to train a puppy by working with, rather than against, the puppys instincts. Includes advice on dealing with common issues such as house-breaking, chewing, jumping, and helping puppies live harmoniously with cats, other dogs, or children"-- FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Written in a fresh, warm voice loaded with empathy, Welcoming Your Puppy from Planet Dog lights the path to a relaxed, happy interspecies household "I truly LOVE this book. If I were fostering, breeding, or getting a new puppy, Id read it twice, and still keep it within reach every day." -- Dr. Patricia McConnell, applied animal behaviorist, speaker, and author of The Other End of the Leash and The Puppy Primer After a decade of guiding people whove just added a puppy to the family, dog trainer Kathy Callahan has learned a fundamental truth: at some point every one of them feels overwhelmed. When they seek out expertise, theyre flooded with impossibly detailed advice, conflicting opinions, and a surprising number of techniques that seem unkind. In contrast, Callahan reassures owners that success flows not from nailing an intimidating list of disciplinary tactics, but from adopting a mindset of "trusted guide" rather than "master." The key to great training is recognizing that we have essentially kidnapped these puppies from their own vastly different culture. Using an easy-to-grasp "Planet Dog / Planet Human" concept, Callahan dives into the puppy essentials, including: - how to prepare your house (and yourself) for puppyhood - potty training, chewing, jumping, and other challenges - how to train with fun, not fear - why it might seem your puppy "just doesnt listen" - navigating puppyhood with young kids, cats, and/or other dogs - what to do if theres household disagreement on things like whether dogs belong on furniture In fun-to-read chapters filled with empathy for both the beleaguered humans and their confused puppies, Welcoming Your Puppy from Planet Dog paves the way for a rewarding friendship between a relaxed, well-prepared human and a canine family member whos happily at ease in our world.
