What a wonderful insight into the canine mind! This book is full of actual scientific explanations of canine physiology, instinct, and culture. It is explained in a straightforward manner, without using a lot of academia. It's especially useful during early puppyhood, as it explains how the brain develops and what you can do to affect it during this critical time.

I agree with much of the theoretical information presented. It is just that too much of the book is only sentimental fill.
Smart October 18, 2007
This is a comprehensive study that blends theory, science and applied behavior techniques--exactly what I needed.

ESSENTIAL reading for the intellectually curious about your dog's behavior. I could hardly put it down. Kept saying... "Oh! THAT'S why he's doing that!" and "THAT'S what I should be doing when...". Excellent background and context to your dog's behavior and understanding of his/her world. I have lots of dog and dog training books. This rates in the top 3. And I actually gave a copy to my dog's trainer as a gift. This is not a 'how-to' manual for training, so it should not be your first or only training book. But for those wanting a deeper understanding of the why's and what's of those things you read in the training books or hear in class, this book is recommended without reservation.
