About this listen

What's going on, guys? Adam here from Southend Dog Training. If you've got a puppy already or you're thinking about getting one in the future, there is tons of advice and guidance to help you with what is - let's be very clear - a pretty massive step in life. If you've seen any of my videos on TikTok or articles on my website, you'll know I'm all about keeping things simple and saying it as it is.

How to Raise the Perfect Dog tells you everything you need to know to train your puppy, with straight-talking advice from Southend Dog Training founder Adam Spivey.

The first twelve months or so of a dog's life are the hardest work, but Adam Spivey can help. He will help you both thrive as you learn to understand your dogs needs and behaviours. Adam's simple, straight-talking approach takes all the nonsense out of dog training and puts your pup at the centre of everything you do.

Listen to How to Raise the Perfect Dog and build a bond with your dog that lasts a lifetime.

This audiobook includes a socialisation checklist which can be viewed on the southenddogtraining website.

Straight forward easy to understand advice

Must admit I love Adam and the Southend Dog Training. No messing just straight to the point and get in with it. This book is exactly as I expected it and though my ‘puppy’ is now 8+ months the advice given is still important. I especially like the going back to easier training when they get frustrated so they can experience easy wins. That works for adults too 😁 Thank you Adam great book x

common sense at it's best

Adam tells is as it is,I admire that and can relate to it.
easy to understand even a fool could follow it.
I'm now looking to see if he has any more books or a social media place to join.
it's excited me to do more with my dog but also I've realised mistakes I'm making definitely had a couple of oops moments.

Great book

I love that it is such a clear book on how to raise a puppy. I will definitely give it to my puppy buyers when the puppy's move out. I hope for a next book about fixing problems!
