After reading The Character of Cats, another book by the author, I was pleased to find this book at a local used book store. This book does not disappoint. It explains the evolution of dogs and origins of behavior in a way that any pet lover who is not a scientist could understand. The authos does a valuable service by pointing out the differences in ways that dogs , interact with humans versus each other, thus putting to rest the dated but common idea that we should treat dogs as though we are dogs also (alpha rolls, etc.)
The tone of the book is light-hearted but contains some excellent research that will help you understand your dog better.
