    Written in a fresh, warm voice loaded with empathy, Welcoming Your Puppy from Planet Dog lights the path to a relaxed, happy interspecies household

    "Expert advice that is deeply insightful, funny, entertaining, and highly relatable."
    -- Traer Scott, bestselling author of Shelter Dogs and Finding Home

    After a decade of guiding people who've just added a puppy to the family, dog trainer Kathy Callahan has learned a fundamental truth: at some point every one of them feels overwhelmed. When they seek out expertise, they're flooded with impossibly detailed advice, conflicting opinions, and a surprising number of techniques that seem unkind.

    In contrast, Callahan reassures owners that success flows not from nailing an intimidating list of disciplinary tactics, but from adopting a mindset of "trusted guide" rather than "master." The key to great training is recognizing that we have essentially kidnapped these puppies from their own vastly different culture. Using an easy-to-grasp "Planet Dog / Planet Human" concept, Callahan dives into the puppy essentials, including:

    - how to prepare your house (and yourself) for puppyhood
    - potty training, chewing, jumping, and other challenges
    - how to train with fun, not fear
    - why it might seem your puppy "just doesn't listen"
    - navigating puppyhood with young kids, cats, and/or other dogs
    - what to do if there's household disagreement on things like whether dogs belong on furniture

    In fun-to-read chapters filled with empathy for both the beleaguered humans and their confused puppies, Welcoming Your Puppy from Planet Dog paves the way for a rewarding friendship between a relaxed, well-prepared human and a canine family member who's happily at ease in our world.
