Whether a newly adopted dog is from a breeder or a shelter dogs all come with natural canine characteristics and instinctual behaviors. When common behavioral issues occur families are often frustrated. Some may seek professional help but ASPCA statistics report that 3.9 million dogs are abandoned or surrendered to shelters each year and the most common reason reported is behavioral issues. The Humane Society reports that up to 20% of dogs are returned to the shelters within the first six months.</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)> </span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>A portion of the proceeds from the sales of this book will go to providing free dog safety materials for children via the national nonprofit Kids-n-K9s 501(c)(3).</span></p>
