Great book for novice/intermediate dog owners and dog caretakers

By Dakota1059
I recently began taking care of companions (mostly dogs) full-time and I was interested in gaining more knowledge about how to become a more fulfilling leader. This book gave me exactly what I was looking for, tips and tricks in order to reach a dog’s inner breed/personality. At times, it may take awhile to properly bond with a dog but once someone reaches that emotional level, they both will know it. It’s not just important to be a leader, but a leader and a friend at the same time. I do wish there was more in-depth information about the later years of these dog’s lives but I assume Cesar covers more information about the later years of other dogs in his other books.
This helped me so much

This helped me when I got my dog, and I’ve read it multiple times since then. I actually liked reading the autobiography part because I found it interesting. The training isn’t torturous. If you really look at his dogs, they are genuinely happy and healthy. Dogs can’t fake that.
How to Raise the Perfect Dog

This could just as easily been titled " How to Raise the Perfect Owner". Having just finished the book, I quickly opened a cozy mystery and within pages I read of a Labrador pup doing everything wrong and the protagonist allowing it. I'm thinking, "oh, no girl, you need to...". Thank you, sir.
Basic knowledge, but ultimately not enough meat on the bone.

This book lays the foundation and gets a good bit of the way there, but ultimately feels flat and incomplete. Cesar teeters between a new dog owners manual and an autobiography of personal stories and anecdotes. Somehow the two don’t quite mesh.
The best book you can buy when getting a puppy

By BriannaDick77
Cesar returns with an exponential amount of information for first time dog owners and puppy parents. The way he explains dog psychology and behavior is fool-proof. I recommend this book to anyone thinking of getting a dog but especially a puppy.
10/10

This book was incredibly helpful and descriptive. I pick up my cavalier puppy in 9 days. How to Raise the Perfect Dog, along with one other breed-specific book, have prepared me for the long journey ahead. Cesar's methods are of positive reinforcement and patience. I absolutely recommend this book to anyone planning on or considering getting a puppy. Thank you Cesar!
I Use Cesar's Methods !

Cesar's methods do work and I have fixed many problem dogs with his methods. I have learned a lot from him I never could have accomplished without him. I Thank Cesar for helping me learn how to better communicate properly with my dogs and others, and for the many dogs he himself has rehabilitated! He is blessed with a wonderful gift, he is a very heartwarming person of hope.
Perfect Puppy

By Dublin's Ma
This book clearly serves its purpose and clearly explains how to raise the perfect puppy. No ticks or gimmicks, just clear outlines of the necessary work of raising a new member of the family. Cornet jokes and written in plain language make this book an easy read. I wish every dog owner was required to read this book before they were allowed to adopt a dog!
