WHY does your dog like to roll in the smelliest thing it can find?
What does your dog hear when you give it multiple commands? There are so many questions that come into your relationship with your dog because at the base of it is the attempt for two different species to live together. Gathered together for the first time is this wonderful collection of essays by animal behaviourist Patricia B. McConnell. Drawing from her regular column in Bark magazine, her radio show Calling All Pets, and the 11 books she has written, McConnell has picked the best of her writing.
Her easygoing writing style makes each essay a comfortable journey towards increased understanding of your dog's motivation and those signs for how it is trying to communicate with you. From puppies to training to lifelong partnership, McConnell will warm your heart with her insights and help you have a better relationship with your canine friend.
