For Love of Dogs

Includes Training DVD. Animal Rescue League of Iowa experiences it all - wonderful dogs whose owners can no longer care for them, litters of puppies, and adult dogs of all breeds and combinations, fostering special needs dogs, legislative successes, on-staff veterinary care, solving behavior problems, and on-site teaching and training. You'll read dozens of heartfelt rescue and adoption stores and learn the following: Selecting a puppy, communicating with and understanding your dog, a puppy's development, housetraining, adopting an older dog, what you need to know about children and dogs, prepping a dog before bringing it home, basic commands, caring for your dog. Also, solving behavior problems such as jumping, inappropriate chewing, counter-surfing, fear and much, much more! Includes the Solve-A Problem, Save-A Pet training DVD where you'll see how a trained dog, a puppy, and an older dog in training respond. If you've ever thought...my dog could never do that... you'll see how a few simple steps can make a big difference in your pet's manners.
