I'm a great believer in keeping things short and simple particularly in today's world where life is so hectic. Like children, pets are a huge responsibility. They require love, guidance and attention on a regular basis. As a general rule, the more effort you put in the greater the results. This publication was designed for people who don't have the time to sit down and read 200 pages packed with information you'll probably never use. I've stripped out the "filler" and given you the essentials in a format that anyone, including children, can understand. That said, it's important to read through the guide at least twice before taking action and I do recommend taking notes to help you recall the key points relevant to your own situation. Remember that anything worthwhile requires tolerance, patience and perseverance. Use these tools and I promise you that in the end, you will be triumphant Kind Regards Valerie Fletcher Table Of Contents INTRODUCING YOUR HOME TO YOUR PUPPY CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION TO CRATE TRAINING CHAPTER 2 APPROPRIATE FORMS OF CORRECTION OR DISCIPLINE - WHERE IS THE LINE?
