If I were  . . .  getting a new puppy, I’d read it twice, and still keep it within reach every day.”\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e— Dr. Patricia McConnell, \u003c\/strong\u003eapplied animal behaviorist, speaker, and author of\u003cem\u003e The Other End of the Leash \u003c\/em\u003eand\u003cem\u003e The Puppy Primer\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eAfter a decade of guiding people who’ve 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, they’re flooded with impossibly detailed advice, conflicting opinions, and a surprising number of techniques that seem unkind.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e 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:\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e • how to prepare your house (and yourself) for puppyhood\u003cbr\u003e • potty training, chewing, jumping, and other challenges\u003cbr\u003e • how to train with fun, not fear\u003cbr\u003e • why it might seem your puppy “just doesn’t listen”\u003cbr\u003e • navigating puppyhood with young kids, cats, and\/or other dogs\u003cbr\u003e • what to do if there’s household disagreement on things like whether dogs belong on furniture\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In fun-to-read chapters filled with empathy for both the beleaguered humans and their confused puppies, \u003cem\u003eWelcoming Your Puppy from Planet Dog\u003c\/em\u003e paves the way for a rewarding friendship between a relaxed, well-prepared human and a canine family member who’s happily at ease in our world.\u003cbr\u003e\n","brand":"Kathy Callahan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48285337354491,"sku":"9781608689217","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_477e6fc4-e306-4d7b-8c3f-7ed8886ae851.jpg?v=1771445121","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/welcoming-your-puppy-from-planet-dog-9781608689217","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
