   This is tough.  Some of these don't exactly fall into the 'Dog Training'   
   realm necessarily, but are interesting reads, nonetheless.  In no particular   
   order:   
      
   Don't shoot the dog - Karen Pryor   
   The Other End of the Leash - Patricia McConnell   
   The Power of Positive Dog Training - Pat Miller   
   Dogs - Coppinger & Coppinger   
      
   I haven't done any puppy stuff myself, but these have been recommended by   
   people I trust:   
      
   Before & After Getting Your Puppy - Dunbar (also Sirius puppy training   
   videos by him).   
      
   You should probably see what your local library has to offer.  Mine has most   
   of these books.
