Reviewer: Marilee A. Espy, Georgia
I ordered this book for my 9 year old granddaughter who just recently got a lab puppy....she loves this book. She is very smart and has learned so much about how to care, train and enjoy her new friend. It has given her knowledge of what to expect from this breed. The book was in perfect condition and it was a great price.

As a breeder of Labrador Retrievers, I found this a very thorough beginner's book for buying, raising and training a Lab! It is not very long, yet it contains the basics! I bought one of these books for each of the new puppy families from our last litter to give them as a gift from our kennel! I will do the same again for future litters!
Fun Dog Fun Book!

Audrey Pavia"s book portrays the Labrador as an all around fun loving family dog. If you don't own one after reading this book you will probably want to acquire one. She is very thorough in her chapters on health and training. Her chapter five (Understanding Your Lab) is an excellent and easy to understand study of canine behavior. Her chapters on whether to breed or not to breed your Labrador are very thoughtful. It is a well written,handy manual for a Labrador owner... or would be owner.
Okay book, but not a lot of new information

I have got this book along with another yellow lab training book. This is the one I finished first. I am not that amazed of the quality of the content. Of course, you should love your puppy and treat him/her with properly. If not, why would you get one? It has a bunch of "do's" and "don'ts" which may or may help you. I have got some ideas, but me and my puppy also attended a local "puppy kindergarden" which I found fun and beneficial for both of us. My puppy is over 14 wks now, and he sure is growing and handful.

If you are going to get this book, check out the content. How would you do it? You may have to buy it. But it is okay. It is a decent book overall.

Have fun raising yours. We are having fun!
