- Book Synopsis
- A decade of working with people who've just added a puppy to the household has taught certified professional dog trainer Kathy Callahan (cpdt-ka) a fundamental truth: at some point after the initial honeymoon, every single 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. In contrast, Callahan reassures owners that success flows not from nailing an intimidating list of disciplinary details, but instead from shifting their approach from that of "master" to one of "cultural ambassador." The key to great training is recognizing that we have essentially kidnapped these puppies from their own vastly different culture. Using that grounding Planet Dog principle, Callahan covers the puppy essentials and more, including: how to prepare your house (and yourself) for puppyhood the best ways to handle potty training, chewing, jumping, and other challenges how to train with fun, not fear why it might seem your puppy "just doesn't listen" what to do if there's household disagreement on things like whether dogs belong on furniture how to help puppies and young kids, other dogs, and/or cats live safely and happily together. "Kathy Callahan delivers expert advice that is deeply insightful, funny, entertaining, and highly relatable. . . . Her 'Planet Dog / Planet Human' concept is 100 percent accurate, and this book will be comforting, accessible, and effective for anyone raising a puppy." - Traer Scott, bestselling author of Shelter Dogs and Finding Home.
