It’s not always the dog that needs a lesson in good manners.

In her complete guide to dog decorum, she discusses acceptable behavior for every occasion in a dog’s life, including:
- Behaving at home and on the street

- Having fun at pet events
- Treating veterinarians, pet sitters, and dog groomers with respect.

Both practical and fun, with real-life stories and expert training tips, The Miss Fido Manners Complete Book of Dog Etiquette is the only book you and your dog need.

Too Much “Miss” Information
While Charlotte Reed’s book “The Miss Fido Manners Complete Book of Dog Etiquette” does share some good tips, this book has more wrong than right.
I have seen Charlotte on numerous morning shows discussing a wide variety
of pet topics and have always been impressed. I read her book from cover to cover and thoroughly enjoyed the anecdotes which were right on the money and made the book user friendly. It far surpassed other training books I’ve read and will certainly reccommend it to my clients!
If your life includes a furry friend then Miss Fido Manners Complete Book of Dog Etiquette is a book you’ll want to add this to your collection–especially in today’s complex world of inter-species soirées.
In my opinion, mannered mutts rule while the others simply drool.
So, if you hate when dogs jump on people only to hear, “Oh! its okay”–when you know it isn’t–you’ll find this book a great reference tool.
In addition to short tips and snippets of information, you’ll find product recommendations and useful website links.
Some of the topics you will find are home and office manners, proper child and neighbor relations, street smarts, restaurant rules, parties and gifts, pet professional protocols, and more.
Make sure you raise a sophisti-pet by using some of the newest tips and hints in books such as this one…and if you have someone who has a delinquent dog it makes the perfect gift!
