Each chapter in this book covers a month of your Lab puppy’s development. You learn what you can expect from your pup and how to deal with each stage of growth. It’s easy to be overwhelmed by the challenges of raising a Lab puppy, and I hope this book helps you through the first 12 months of this big adventure!
First you find out what goes on at the breeder’s and how her care affects the future of your puppy. You get tips on choosing the right breeder and puppy for your family. You also learn how to prepare for his arrival and make him comfortable in his new home.
The following chapters explain the various aspects, month by month, of your puppy’s physical development, health care, nutritional needs, grooming, socialization, behavior, and training. And we end each chapter with a special section dedicated to building your friendship with your new Labrador Retriever puppy—because after all, isn’t that one of the most important things?
Your Labrador Retriever Puppy Month-by-Month provides readers with everything they need to know and do at each stage of development to make sure their playful, energetic puppy grows into a happy, healthy, and well-adjusted companion.
