Ian
Dunbar has made available several books on puppy training – Before you
Get Your Puppy and After you Get your Puppy. The books are available to

The books are essential reading for all dog owners and particularly important for those getting a puppy for the first time.
BEFORE You Get Your Puppy
describes the process of selecting a puppy and preparing for their
first days at home, as well as the key developmental deadlines including
socialisation and bite inhibition. It also offers training advice on
topics every owner needs to know about, like toilet training and chew
toy training.
AFTER You Get Your Puppy offers
proven, time-tested and practical knowledge to guide owners through all
the early developmental stages from puppyhood to adolescence, including
how to manage the critical socialisation window between 8 and 12 weeks
and the importance of learning bite inhibition before 22 weeks of age.
