Contrary to what some of the dog training books on the market try to lead you to believe, you're not going to potty train your puppy in three days and you're not going to obedience train them in seven. Puppies have short attention spans and small bladders and that is why I feel comfortable in making that bold claim and also why I believe that some, not all, but some of the books on the market today are trying to mislead you. The methods outlined in this how to train a puppy book are methods that we use. They work for us and they should work for you.
