Good book but not really what I thought it was going to be. I figured with her experience in working with dogs it would be more then quoting scientific data and a little more about her experiences in training. There were some spots that made me smile to tear up but others that left me somewhat bored and uninterested. I will say that it did help me in working with my own dog and change the way I work with him.
What a gentle read and an in depth look at behavior, personality and the character of dogs. I finished it today and have already loaned it to a co-worker when he asked me a question on dog personalities. If you are a "dog person" you will very much enjoy this read.
I learned some things from this, some I agreed with and some I did not, but it was interesting.
saw the author and her program on PBS for a minute--really interested in the book now
