Get to know your best friend better: "Everyone who owns a dog, breeds or trains dogs, or works with dogs should read this informative book." -
Library Journal
Just think about the different behaviors you see at a dog park. We have a good understanding of what it means when dogs wag their tails-but what about when they sniff and roll on a stinky spot? Why do they play tug-of-war with one dog, while showing their bellies to another? Why are some dogs shy, while others are bold? What goes on in dogs' heads and hearts-and how much can we know and understand?
Written by award-winning scientist-and lifelong dog lover-Marc Bekoff,
Canine Confidential not only brilliantly opens up the world of dog behavior, but also helps us understand how we can make our dogs' lives better. Rooted in the most up-to-date science on cognition and emotion-fields that have exploded in recent years-
Canine Confidential is a wonderfully accessible treasure trove of new information and myth-busting. Peeing, we learn, isn't always marking; grass-eating isn't always an attempt to trigger vomiting; it's okay to hug a dog-on their terms; and so much more.
There's still much we don't know, but at the core of the book is the certainty that dogs do have deep emotional lives, and that as their companions and trainers we must recognize them as the unique, complex individuals they are-so we can keep them as happy and healthy as possible.
"Bekoff shares his own studies and others' research, along with real-life stories, in a winning tone." -
