In chapters reviewed by experts in veterinary medicine, nutrition, and training, pet parents will learn:

    • Where to find your perfect canine companion
    • All about breeds and mixed breeds and how you can adopt any type of dog
    • Smart guidelines for adoption success
    • Realistic expenses of dog care
    • What to expect when you bring your new pup home (and long after)
    • How to prevent runaways and protect your dog from all types of harm
    • Clicker, target stick, and other re-training methods
    • Humane ways to modify undesirable behaviors
    • How to introduce new diets and take the guesswork out of feeding
    • Holistic and conventional medical treatments

      Getting ready to adopt a dog from a shelter can be a joyful experience if you have a good plan and have everything ready for the new arrival at home. If you've never adopted a shelter dog, you'll find this book invaluable. It is written in an easy-to-read-and-understand style and is well organized so you can refer back to your favorite topics with ease. While I believe this book would be a good reference resource to have in a dog owners library, I believe it to be extremely valuable to the reader that has never brought home a shelter dog. With the adoption of a shelter dog, you'll have little to no information about it's past training, behaviors, and health issues. This book will guide you through the process of adopting a shelter dog.
