How To Train Your Siberian Husky

How To Train Your Siberian Husky was written by Liz Palika. This non-fiction was given the "seal of approval" by ASPCA. Since my son and I watch ASPCA: Animal Cops on the Animal Planet channel faithfully, I thought this would be a good book to purchase. How To Train Your Siberian Husky is filled with excellent pictures that reinforces the ideas and concepts they are talking about. This book takes the reader through the thought process of selecting the right dog. In addition, the reader is introduced to the developmental stages of huskies. Formal training, puppy training, basic and advanced training methods are covered. Lastly, this book reminds the readers that it is important, both for you and the dog, to have fun while training.

MY TWO CENTS WORTH:
A simple, yet straight forward book about training your Siberian Husky. This book was an easy read and provided step-by-step procedures on how to train your husky.

Siberian Huskies

Siberian Huskies: A Complete Pet Owner's Mannual was written by Kerry Kern and published by Barron's. This book provides the reader with a brief history, considerations before getting a husky, and multiple tips. These tips cover understanding husky behavior, basic caring, feeding, grooming, general health, and training. Lastly, the book introduces the reader about what breeders look for when they are going down the breeding trail.

MY TWO CENTS WORTH:
As a new owner of a Siberian Husky, I have purchased a number of books regarding Siberian Huskies. This book is geared for owners who have a new puppy and it does little for those of us who start dog ownership with an older (i.e. 1-4 year old) husky. For those of you considering a Siberian Husky puppy, this is a good book to review. However, if you will be getting an older dog, I would skip this book.

Dunc's Doll

Dunc's Doll is one of many titles within the Culpepper Adventures series written by Gary Paulsen. In a nutshell, the Culpepper Adventures series is about two boys, Dunc and Amos, who seek out and solve mysteries both by calculated and accidental methods. Dunc and Amos visit a traveling antique doll show learn about a doll Charles Dicken's daughter owned. The adventure begins when the doll was stolen. Dunc and Amos set out to uncover the thief and return the doll. The boys develop a plan which includes dressing up like a girl and distracting a guard dog. Dunc's Doll will guide you through their hilarious adventure of solving the crime surrounding the stolen doll formally owned by Charles Dicken's daughter.

MY TWO CENTS WORTH:
As one of my favorite authors, I eat up anything he writes and publishes. The Culpepper Adventure series has to be one of my favorite series to read. They are short adventure packed books riddled with funny and identifiable moments. Dunc and Amos, the main characters throughout the Culpepper Adventure series, lead you through many engaging and hilarious adventures. Although Dunc's Doll is a book about a collector's doll, it is a book in which boys of all ages will enjoy reading. In fact, I am confident many readers will seek out other books within the Culpepper Adventure series so they can discover what Amos and Dunc are up to.
