Good product, poor handling
By GSDmom on Dec 6, 2021
Good material; but the book had a giant barcode sticker across the front. This is a paperback book, so there is no way to remove the sticker completely without destroying the cover.

MUST HAVE 4 1ST TIME GERMAN OWNERS
By Chelsea on Jun 9, 2021
You won’t regret it, this book has sooo much in-detail knowledge that helps you learn with your puppy the stages he/she will be going through. This book is like the baby book what to expect when your expecting but for Germans. I thought it would be a small book but it’s actually thick. The months are spot on with what my German is doing although it says puppy comes home at three months and mine came at 2 as most of us do. Still very knowledgeable and worth the money will recommend :)

Worth multiple times the cost!
By Judy on Mar 19, 2021
Your German shepherd puppy month by month is a valuable tool for me as I have never had a dog before. I am preparing to bring a German Shepherd puppy home soon and this book has been my instruction manual. They made me wise to breed specific training, toilet training crate training and how my German shepherd will develop not only physically but mentally.So many great training tips are given throughout the book that you can work on with your dog at home and will help you build a bond.

Fantastic!
By Caitlin on Mar 12, 2021
I’m getting my first German Shepherd puppy in 2 weeks, so I wanted to make sure that I’d know what to expect and be prepared. This book gave me everything I needed! It’s super detailed and easy to follow, and I totally recommend this!

Has helped a ton!
By Taylor on May 1, 2019
I bought this book because I've never owned a GSD and I wanted to make sure I was prepared for my pup when she arrived. It has definitely helped and now that I've had her for about 3 weeks, I've already applied and utilized many of the tips within. The tips it gives seems relatively basic, but I would definitely recommend if you're a newb GSD owner!

Great book
By Renee on Mar 27, 2019
Really good book; wish I had read it with all my other puppies; training would have went a lot smoother. It works great for my german shepherd puppy, but also using it to train my older golden retriever that I thought would never pay attention. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks???
