Must read for understanding dogs

Plenty of good information is contained in this Audible guide. Most of us are familiar with the dog whisperer and he does share with the reader some sound advice. Free from Audible I took advantage of this work and having read it think that every dog owner or those considering adopting a dog should read this. Highly educational and well written.

Helpful insights on shelter dogs

I learned a lot of things I will apply to the training of and relationship with my new dog. I only wish that Cesar read the book himself.

Good insights about shelter dogs.

Brief enough to review in 1 or 2 listens which is good if you are bringing home a new dog from the shelter. It’s a great reminder of the most important things to remember. It’s been a while since we brought a new dog home, but we have just done so after the loss of a 12 yo black lab mix that we loved very much.

Helpful!

Thank you! I’ve never owned a puppy or dog all on my own before. This was very informative, insightful and easy to relate to. A great guide to bringing home our new puppy and what to do with her to establish good behavior.

Great information!

I already knew some of those information but it is always good to hear and there are definitely some new things I learned to that I did not consider before. All in all great listen.
