My name's Steve Mann and I've been a professional dog trainer and behaviourist for over 30 years . As founder of the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers, I've helped transform the lives of over 100,000 dogs and their families - and now I want to help you, too! It could also hit more on enrichment, desensitisation and socialization in a more in depth manner – but then would Easy Peasy Puppy Squeezy achieve it’s original goal of being a short compendium that’s easy to digest?

Building positive associations at a young age makes life much easier when your bundle of fluff has grown into a big strong dog. Control puppy’s environment and you will mitigate the possibility of an unwanted behaviour occurring. Did puppy chew your shoes? That was your fault for leaving your shoes and puppy unattended! The key is to surround puppy with ‘legal’ chew toys and never leave puppy alone if they’re in an environment that contains ‘illegal’ chew toys. This book is labelled for ‘puppies’ – but it’s really not. This is a book that can help most people. There may be some application of principles learnt to alternative situations, but there is advice in there for everyone. I love that it covers the basics. It gives you the why, it gives you the how, and it gives a new puppy parent something digestible to get them into puppy training. Absolutely Amazing ❤️ it' and as always came away from another IMDT course hosted By Liz at PDT learning lots' and realising i need to work with puppies 😁 ❤️Thank you so much Steve' and the Amazing Tania Folks 😁 ❤️ your classTogether we’ll also design and develop your personal, fully comprehensive multi-week puppy group class syllabus and lesson plan for you to take away and use in the future:-

Even if punishment works some of the time, is it worth it? If you end up with a dog that doesn’t trust you or a dog that doesn’t want to come near you? How can that ever be a good thing? Other than the wealth of knowledge, I have to say one of my favourite things is the humour in Easy Peasy Puppy Squeezy. It’s easy to write a basic training book, but this genuinely had me laughing! Which is great, who doesn’t need a laugh? This is a great book for new puppy parents, and can really help, but it won’t solve all your issues. Improvements

The first fear period coincides with the time of life when young puppies are physically strong enough to leave the nest and start investigating the wider world. In nature, if they were to wander too far from Mum’s protection they could be vulnerable to all sorts of things. (Like a human toddler wobbling off out of Mum’s sight) Steve is a world-renowned expert who presents dog training and behaviour seminars worldwide including Europe, South America, Africa and the Middle East. TV appearances include BBC's The Underdog Show and Who Let The Dogs Out?, ITV's Lorraine and Animal Rescue, plus several other shows in the UK and worldwide. Steve has worked with many celebrities including Graham Norton, Brian Blessed and Theo Walcott. He also works as an Animal Consultant for TV and Film shoots and regularly speaks at behaviour, management and training conferences. The writing style of the book is very relaxed and easy to read and there is a lot of humour. This all makes the book enjoyable to read. I would definitely recommend this book for puppy owners.
