 PUPPY SCHOOL: Everything you need to know to raise the perfect pup
 By Maggie Holt & Stella Sweeting
 -----
 The two authors of this new book together have more than 40
        years of experience in dog training athletes, and the book uses a very appealing approach
        filled with photographs. You have the opportunity to see exactly how a dog can be trained
        for a specific skill or activitity. Often that skill is illustrated with three or four
        photos, so you see each step along the way.
 Dog behaviors addressed including such
        things as bite inhibition and the command "watch me" to increase your dog's
        attentiveness. There is emphasis on teaching dogs the right cue commands. For beginning
        owners, there are the basics including getting your puppy used to being touched from head
        to tail.  Even long-time dog owners and trainers will find the book of interest, and
        may find it a good book to recommend to new puppy owners. To examine and order this
        books, just click through the linkson the WorkingDogWeb home page or the links at left if you
