"The Art of Raising a Puppy" By The Monks of New Skete, $25.99, 341 pages

For more than 30 years, the Monks of New Skete have been among America's most trusted authorities on dog training, canine behavior, and the animal/human bond.

In their two now-classic bestsellers, "How to be Your Dog's Best Friend" and "The Art of Raising a Puppy," the Monks draw on their experience as longtime breeders of German shepherds and as trainers of dogs of all breeds to provide — brilliantly distilled—the indispensable information and advice that every dog owner needs.

This new edition of "The Art of Raising a Puppy" features new photographs throughout, along with updated chapters on play, crating, adopting dogs from shelters and rescue organizations, raising dogs in an urban environment, and the latest developments in canine health and canine behavioral theory.
