This is an execution manual, not a book to read once and shelve.
Every practical chapter ends with “Do these three things,” so you always know what to do this week. Printable logs and scorecards are collected in Chapter 27.

Path 01
The puppy arrived today
Set up the environment and routine first, then move directly to toileting and crate work.
Path 02
The puppy has been home for two weeks
Build marker and focus skills, then address mouthing and safe socialisation.
Path 03
Is the French Bulldog right for your home?
Read the breed reality, the developmental clock and the long-term exercise limits before deciding.
How to read the cards
Warning card
Safety or behaviour risk
Stop, lower the difficulty and manage the situation before continuing.
Goal card
A clear passing standard
Use the stated behaviour and success rate to decide whether to progress.
Time card
Length of one session
End while the puppy is still successful; more minutes are not automatically better.
