Books:
Super Dog by Dr. Michael Fox
Good Owners, Great Dogs by Brian Kilcommons
SuperPuppy: How to Raise the Best Dog You’ll Ever Have! by Peter J. Vollmer
You can probably buy (or order) at your local book store; ABE Books online, Amazon.com or Direct Books 1-800-776-2665, fax 509-662-7233 (or E-mail: dgctbook@cascade.net. )
All three books give great information on how to train and socialize a puppy and cover problems you may encounter in training. If you can only get one book, get the Super Puppy. The first 16 weeks of a puppy’s life are the most critical for socializing and learning behaviors. That doesn’t mean that they do not need to be socialized after that, just that your schedule can be more relaxed.

Dog Names
Most Kuvasz breeders follow the Hungarian tradition of naming each litter by using consecutive alphabet letters for the first name of the pup. The breeder’s first litter of puppy names begin with the letter “A,” then the next litter begins with “B,” and so forth, until the end of the alphabet, when they start over again.
For example, the Double Ring “K” litter (born in 1998) are named: Double Ring Knacker Merlin, Double Ring Kastaspell, Double RIng Kodak Moment and Double Ring Kubla Khan.
