The mindful, carefully researched approach to raising (not just training) a puppy provides what few other dog training books do -- the big picture. Why do dogs behave the way they do? Why are their instincts sometimes not in synch with how humans need them to behave, and how then can their instincts be influenced and molded gently to be compatible with a lifetime with humans?
I read this book cover to cover when I got my new puppy, and bought it for my dad when he got his.
My only challenge has been that the other people (teenage daughters and my boyfriend) who love my puppy have not read the book. I need to get it on tape and put it on their iPods!

Exellent book with many insights to dog behavior. It's been valuable to training our dog. The only draw back is that there aren't enough examples or "how tos" for me.
Rating: - Read it
Get this book and keep it if you think of ever raising a puppy. Very educational and also entertaining. You will learn a lot about dogs' temparaments, their various, often unexpected behaviors, and generaly about the world of dogs. Great Resource!!! Another great title is "Cesar's Way" by Cesar Millan

This book was recommended by a breeder and has proved to be one of the best dog books I've read. The monks do such a great job and have helped a lot of us to understand our dogs better.
