My favorite was Puppies for Dummies, the 2000 edition. I can only imagine that the 2006 edition is even better. Early sections help the reader decide what breed is best for his lifestyle and how to be ready for puppy's first day home. Especially important was the timeline--what training the puppy needs at what age--in order to grow to her best potential. The organization is excellent with easy ... Read More
