He has some interesting canine theories but they seem largely speculative and anthropomorphic, though stated as factual. Okay, so he was curator of mammals at a zoo...but no mention of his educational background or other qualifications. ( )

Gives answers to fascinating fundamental questions about our canine companions - questions often overlooked by standard dog books and even dog owners. He clears up many misconceptions and half-truths about these loyal animals, who give us a curious place in their own packs, join in with ours, and try so valiantly to comprehend our wishes, whether they be expressed in Polish, Japanese, or English.
