5.0 out of 5 stars Another superb book, January 6, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Tales of Two Species: Essays on Loving and Living with Dogs (Paperback)
Patricia McConnell again writes with deep feeling and understanding of our best friends and our relationships with them. She has given me many clues and directional arrows to help me understand my own pack.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book!, February 10, 2010
This review is from: Tales of Two Species: Essays on Loving and Living with Dogs (Paperback)
Patricia McConnell did a great job with this book. It's funny and heartwarming, but most importantly it really makes you think about your relationship with your dog and how you act together.

I love how she sometimes just admitted that we don't know everything about dogs and that we sometimes just have to laugh at them (and how we're sure they're probably laughing at us as well).

I highly recommend this book for an easy read.

2.0 out of 5 stars It repeats what she alredy published in her other books! The same exact material!, December 18, 2010
This review is from: Tales of Two Species: Essays on Loving and Living with Dogs (Paperback)
I've read her other books and was very disappointed that she repeated the SAME EXACT stories that she had already published. That is cheating! How can she sell two books with the same stories? It's boring to read the same stuff over and over again, just to make sure there isn't anything new. Otherwise I think she's good for the most part (although sometimes I wish I could find an author that was an expert not just on dogs with fear and aggression problems). Not all dogs are bad!
