Question by Three 5 Mafia: What are the best puppy training books/methods?
I am getting a 10 week old female american eskimo dog. I need some good books on basic behavioral training, housebreaking, etc. I don’t want a method that uses treats as a means to train the dogs.
Also, how young should one start training a puppy?

First off do not listen to your parents or anyone else. Times have changed and the way to discipline and train animals has evolved with new training techniques and reward systems that work. Go to your neighbvorhood pet store and talk with other customers as alot of them are breeders trainers and overall experienced animal owners. ( not the typical 16 yr old with part time job) also it would be a good idea to go to a few sessions with your animal and see how he responds to what kind of training.

Question by C C: Best puppy food for my AmStaff puppy – and how much does basic training usually cost? Richmond, Va.?
I want my puppy to only have the best and healthiest food to make her strong but I don’t know what that would be. Also I have limited funds (very) and she is going to need some basic training after she is spayed. How much does that normally cost, when should I start, how long does it usually take and does the trainer have to come into your home or do you make visits? Thanks ahead of time for any help.

A group puppy class is usually 6-8 weeks long and about 0 at a big chain pet store, a little less at a community center. You can start at 5-6 months.
Spaying, when all costs are accounted for, is about 0 … but there are lower cost options all the way to free through many humane societies.
Dry food of the best quality is something like a Eukanuba or Science Diet. Find the a discount provider in your area. (There are many higher priced brands — my favorite is Merrick — but given your budget and the size of your dog I’d check out the other ones I named first.)
