Summary

If you can have only one book on your shelf about raising a pup, this is the one to get. Stanley Coren, author of The Intelligence of Dogs and How Dogs Think If you feel bombarded with conflicting advice about what to feed your new puppy or if the idea of a choke collar makes you wince even though you've heard it's the right way to go, here at last is advice you can trust. The faculty of the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University, one of the most prestigious and pioneering veterinary schools in the world, now shares its accumulated knowledge and experience in this groundbreaking wholedog approach to raising the happiest, most wellbehaved puppy possible. In contrast to a single breeder's or trainer's theory about what is effective most of the time, the recommendations in this book are scientifically proven to work. And the advice here delivers not just during the puppy's first year but throughout the dog's life. Puppy's First Steps features: How to test a puppy's temperament before you decide which one to take home Socializing your puppy with other people and dogs Housetraining in less than a week The most nutritious, safest food for your puppy Keeping your puppy happy while you're at work The Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University is consistently among the top veterinary medicine programs in the United States. Nicholas Dodman is a worldrenowned animal behaviorist and the bestselling author of The Dog Who Loved Too Much and Dogs Behaving Badly.
