Made Bringing Home My Dog So Much Easier

When I adopted my dog, I honestly wasn’t sure if I was doing everything right. This book gave me clear, practical advice that made the transition so much smoother—for both of us. I learned how to build trust, set routines, and avoid common mistakes that could make my dog anxious. The tips were easy to follow, and I loved that it covered different situations, whether you’re bringing home a puppy or a rescue. Now, my dog is more comfortable, and I feel way more confident as a pet owner. If you’re welcoming a new dog, this is a must-read.

Happy dog, happy home!

We've rescued a few doggies in our later years and it's tougher than you think! I wish I had this book when we first did that, what a lifesaver that would have been. The advice is practical and easy to follow, even if you're a newbie. It helps you understand your dog's anxieties and build trust. I like the step by step approach and also the tips on creating a calm environment. If you're bringing a new furry friend home, this book is a must-have. It will make all the difference in your lives. Highly recommend!

New Little Pup

We have a new little puppy who has been nervous and not really listening. This book gives great advice on helping to meet his needs also while trying to establish some healthy habits. This book has me feeling more confident as we go about training and housebreaking him in. The step-by-step approach feels natural, and I appreciate the focus on patience and understanding. The 3-3-3 rule is in place and working great for us, just knowing we are off to a good start is comforting. I recommend this audio book as a guide to prepare you for a new dog before and after you get them. Valuable insights.

great guide esp for new dog parents!

Bringing my rescue dog. Sansa, home was quite overwhelming, and this audiobook would've made the transition so much smoother. It covers everything from building trust to avoiding common mistakes, making it perfect for both new and experienced dog owners. The tone is friendly and reassuring, which I really appreciated during those stressful first weeks. Wish I had listened sooner
