5.0 out of 5 stars IS SIMPLE, EASY TO READ AND EXTREMELY EDUCATIONAL, October 30, 1999

By A Customer

I first found and read this book in the waiting area of my local vet whilst my dear poodle had daily treatment over several days. I have studied dog behaviour, breeding, genetics, etc at Sydney Technical College and work as a dog trainer, boarder and manage a volunteer pet visiting program. I have read many, and I MEAN many books on dogs and found this one to be most definately, one of the best. It explains in non scientific language why dogs are dogs and why they do the things they do. I found it entertaining at least and extrelely educational at best. I personally, thoroughly recommend this book to anyone wishing to know and understand dogs better. I am delighted that I have found this book at Amazon and can now have my very own copy. P.S. My beautiful poodle has fully recovered from her illness!
