content good but usability less so

I really enjoyed the book but when I went to download the audio files, the website won't accept the audible password- these need to be purchased separately. Pretty disappointing to not actually be able to train the dog after all!

Website Needs Updating

A great book with plenty of positive reinforcement techniques to help prepare your dog for baby's arrival.
I actually love Dr Lewis' real voice from his podcast, so am disappointed he's not the one narrating this audiobook. The actual narrator is kind of dry and American, and his voice puts me to sleep!
The link given in the audiobook to download the baby sounds is broken, and goes to his website but to a dead page which is unfortunate. Thankfully, the sounds are included at the end chapter of this book (just harder to skip through and adjust sound settings).
Dr Lewis has also included a playlist of the sounds on Spotify for free, which you can find by searching his name.
