This is a well written book, with sly humor and many thought provoking chapters about man's best friend. Great addition to a dog lover's library. ( ) Insight into my own dog's mind. My favorite story is of dog as learning organism: a bloodhound pup is bigger than the lab. When the lab fetches the ball, he interrupts his path to his master and takes the ball, thus receiving the treat. One day the lab urinates on the way back, causing the bloodhound to re-mark that territory and abandon his post. The lab gets the treat. From then on, the lab fills up on water when his master picks up the ball... no reviews | add a review
With a wealth of anecdotes about the author's own family of 12 dogs, the book takes us into a world of heightened senses beyond our own perceptions, and offers us an empathetic understanding of doggie feelings. No library descriptions found. |
