Getting a new puppy often goes something like this: excitement, frustration, and disappointment. Even though those first days with your new puppy can be filled with excitement, many puppies do not yet have the skills to behave how you want them to act. If you enter the relationship unprepared, you might even find that your puppy quickly takes over your house and challenges your authority-a recipe for eventual disaster. You must be prepared to establish your authority from the day your puppy enters your home. From showing them important areas to starting a routine they will be expected to follow, everything that you do has the potential to influence their future behavior. This makes it critical that you get started the right way. As you read, I'll also share more about my dog and the strategies we have used to train her. Sasha was around nine months old when she came into our lives and she definitely had some less-than-desirable traits. What she did have was a huge heart-Sasha was great with our kids and fit perfectly into our family. All we had to do was teach her a lesson or two. There's a lot of advice for training puppies online. This book will break down the seven most critical elements of training your pup. You'll learn about setting a routine, housebreaking, obedience and commands, common puppy problems and how to solve them, and more. Each chapter will provide detailed steps on how you can use the strategies presented to improve your pup's behavior. There is no such thing as a puppy that is untrainable. Your pup is a blueprint, ready for you to train as you would like. All you'll need is a little patience and the tools found in the pages of this book.
