This is more than a training book aimed at the first time owner. According to Bill Tarrant, Field and Stream magazine's gun dog editor, Bailey's book is "a stand-up, self-propelling training and dog behaviour book that emphasises the first days of a pup's life in effective training.". In addition, Outdoor Life magazine's hunting dog editor Larry Mueller says, "Hopefully Joan's insight into the dog's first year will at last clarify this important subject. The timely thrust of this book is how to accomplish the amazing things that can be done ONLY while the dog is but a baby. If you have a pup, don't put this book aside to read later.".
