Raising Perfect Puppies

Train your perfect puppy with Will Atherton, the clinical canine behaviourist trusted by over 1m people worldwide.
You're getting a puppy and are keen to get started - but having helped thousands of owners raise their perfect canine companions, I can confidently say that obedience alone doesn't create great dogs. Leadership does.
When owners step into the role of a calm, confident and loving leader, everything else falls into place. That's why this book offers clear, proven, easy-to-follow steps to help you choose the right puppy and become the leader they need from day one.
You'll learn how to:
- Bring your puppy home and set them up for success
- Establish great manners and socialise your puppy
- Reinforce wanted behaviours and calmly interrupt unwanted ones
- Teach the fundamentals of obedience, including sit, stay, come, and walking to heel
- Get back on track if things don't go to plan
Follow these steps and you'll raise a confident, responsive dog who's a joy to live with. This is where the journey to raising your perfect puppy begins!
