    The diary portion of this book will be nice. If you are looking for one with a lot of info, this isn't the book. It gives a lot of summaries for certain ages, but a big portion is the diary.

    4.0 out of 5 stars puppy raising & training diary
    Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2011
    Verified Purchase
    This is a good book for those who are getting their first puppy.The first 1/3 of the book is alot of basic knowledge to get started and makes alot of sense. Explanatory is simple and to the point. I'm happy with the book. The rest of the book is a diary to jot down your training experiences as well as keeping track of office visits. I can do away with that part as I have a separate book for keeping track of his health and vet visits. I would recommend the puppy raising section as it is good knowledge to learn but the rest....I can do without.

    I love this diary! It's a great record to have so you can recount all the cute things your puppy did! I'm enjoying keeping a record of my puppy's first year! I think it's a great keepsake that would be great for any puppy owner!

    In addition to the diary, it also has tips, cool games to play with puppy, etc.
