Description

|
The adorable dog photos here are reason enough to buy this book. A doctor to killer whales, giant pandas, and household pets, British veterinarian David Taylor describes the mind of a typical dog, focusing on its perceptions, emotions, instincts, and ways in which it learns. He discusses special abilities and traits of specific breeds, and tells how to "decode" a mongrel to figure out the different breeds that produced it. Taylor goes on to explain how to interpret a dog's behavior, how to test a dog's intelligence by confronting it with simple tasks, and how to heighten the intelligence it already possesses, then suggests a few clever tricks and shows how to teach them.
