Boxer Rescue Foundation March Auction

Wow!  These are classics ... in fact, they are first editions!  The monks of New Skete support themselves by breeding, raising, and training dogs at their monastery in upper New York state and have an excellent reputation worldwide.  While their books were recently updated, their approach to canine training has not changed. Their philosophy is that "understanding is the key to communication, compassion, and communion" with your dog.  The information in both of these books is invaluable and the high bidder gets both!

How To Be Your Dog's Best Friend: A Training Manual for Dog Owners ... features a step-by-step obedience course for your dog as well as an introduction to the valuable art of "inseeing," which will reveal your dog's behavior for what it really is.  This is the first edition, copyrighted in 1978.  This is an "oldie but goodie" that many trainers still refer to for insight and inspiration.  Excellent condition, including book jacket.

The Art of Raising a Puppy ... features the various stages of puppy developement, how to prepare for your pup's arrival, learning to read your dog, some solutions to common puppy problems and more.  This is the first edition, copyrighted in 1991.  Excellent condition, including book jacket.
