Description
The world doesn’t need another dog training book, but it sure could use Imp, The ImPerfect Pup: Lessons On Being Good Enough, a lighthearted look at the serious matter of a person’s Perfectionism screwing-up the dog. It is estimated that only one out of every one hundred dogs born will ever find a permanent home. Of those relinquished, “bad behavior” is identified as the primary problem. I believe overreaching expectations are the actual culprit. Imp, The ImPerfect Pup pairs realistic goals with sustainable training and behavioral tools in a manner that’s as entertaining as it is instructive. Vignettes from thirty-six years of counseling rich and famous and everyday dog parents, plus tales of my own colorful menagerie, illustrate what’s possible without breaking a sweat. Imp’s point of view is always presented. From the shiny new puppy to a weathered elder who’s been around the block, Imp, The ImPerfect Pup celebrates dogs as they actually are to make your home Imp’s last. I think Good Enough is a Perfect goal. Jody Rosengarten TheBarkStopsHere@aol.com (203) 372-BARK
