Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Is that dog snarling--or smiling? These expressions and many other nuances of canine body language are clearly and charmingly explained and illustrated in Fogle's latest popular work on pet behavior (following Know Your Cat , LJ 1/92). Over 350 photographs capture variations in facial expression and stance demonstrated by a wide variety of dogs, from Chihuahuas to Great Danes and from newborn to geriatric, as they engage in a broad range of interesting, and often amusing, activities. The accompanying text succinctly interprets each situation and offers advice on dealing with problems. Public library patrons, young and old, will be entertained and educated by this beautiful and informative book.

This review is from: Know Your Dog (Hardcover)
If you want to "read" your dog, get this book! It is very informative and the pictures are great. I learned a lot about my beagle's behavior (ie. submissive vs. aggressive behavior) from looking at the pictures!

Common Knowledge,
By A. Vegan (Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Know Your Dog (Hardcover)
I've been thinking about getting a dog so after reading a few reviews about this book, I decided to get it. I've read a few books by Dr. Bruce Fogle and they're all been pretty helpful, except this one. I've never owned a dog but I found the information in this book to be fairly common knowledge. I'd think that most people would know when a dog is angry and when it's happy. This is not a training or breed specific book, but it will teach you the meaning of every doggy mood and action.
