The Super Simple Guide to Housetraining Book

An easy, fun read on housebreaking that closely matches (almost word-for-word) my recommendations to new pet owners on housebreaking their dog.

Other books I recommend focus on so many topics owners may not read the whole book. This book really gets down to brass tacks and tells you what you want to know about getting your pet to go outside in a straightforward and accessible way.

If I were recommending this book to my clients there were two caveats I would make:

1) This book does not warn owners at all about the potential dangers of raw food. While I am glad they recommend people talk to their veterinarian, raw food can put household members at significant risk of exposure to dangerous bacteria.

2) The book discusses how to train your dog to go to the bathroom outside without any supervision. As a vet one of the #1 reasons pets come in with vomiting and diarrhea is that they got into something outside when their owners weren't watching. Even if your dog *can* go potty without you watching, I'd rather they not.

Otherwise a great read with fantastic advice.
