What Parents Should Know

Sensitive Topics

There are no sensitive topics in this book. It is an idealized and completely positive portrayal of puppy ownership, omitting challenges like house-training accidents, chewing, or barking. The approach is entirely secular and focused on practical care and emotional bonding.

Ideal Reader

A toddler, aged 1 to 3, who is about to get a puppy or who shows a strong love for dogs. It's perfect for a family that wants to introduce the idea that a pet is not just a toy but a living creature that needs care and gentleness. It's a preparatory book, not one for dealing with complex pet-related issues.
