Synopsis What Dogs Want by : Mat Ward
How to have fun AND be a fantastic dog owner! Mat Ward is a leading behaviourist and he really can understand what our dogs are thinking. His advice comes with funny but accurate pictures explaining everything you need to know – including what different woofs might mean, how to read a dog's ears and why they wag their tails (it's not always what you think). Our pets may seem straightforward but learning some key training basics and thinking about little details (like what kind of collar to put on them) can make all the difference. Understanding and respect mean your dog lives a contented life – and if the dog feels happy, then so will you!

Synopsis What Dogs Want by : Arden Moore
A visual guide to understanding your dog's every move. A highly visual guide, What Dogs Want interprets all the postures, expressions, sounds, and actions exhibited by your dog. Discover what your dog is trying to say when his ears are down, when his tail is flicking, and when he is growling. For each of the 100 behaviours discussed in the book, there's an image of it, plus an explanation of why your dog is doing it, and what he is telling you about what he wants. Vet's Notes provide insight into potential medical causes, and breed boxes shed light on genetic predisposition to certain behaviour. Every behaviour is cross-referenced according to type-such as submissive, attention-seeking, compulsive, or fearful-and these are fully explained in an appendix at the back of the book. Suitable for all dog breeds, What Dogs Want will open your eyes to how dogs express themselves individually and in their interactions with other dogs and people.

Synopsis What It's Like to Be a Dog by : Gregory Berns
"Dog lovers and neuroscientists should both read this important book." -- Dr. Temple Grandin What is it like to be a dog? A bat? Or a dolphin? To find out, neuroscientist and bestselling author Gregory Berns and his team did something nobody had ever attempted: they trained dogs to go into an MRI scanner -- completely awake -- so they could figure out what they think and feel. And dogs were just the beginning. In What It's Like to Be a Dog, Berns takes us into the minds of wild animals: sea lions who can learn to dance, dolphins who can see with sound, and even the now extinct Tasmanian tiger. Berns's latest scientific breakthroughs prove definitively that animals have feelings very much like we do -- a revelation that forces us to reconsider how we think about and treat animals. Written with insight, empathy, and humor, What It's Like to Be a Dog is the new manifesto for animal liberation of the twenty-first century.

Synopsis Inside of a Dog by : Alexandra Horowitz
As an unabashed dog lover, Alexandra Horowitz is naturally curious about what her dog thinks and what she knows. As a cognitive scientist she is intent on understanding the minds of animals who cannot say what they know or feel. This is a fresh look at the world of dogs -- from the dog's point of view. The book introduces the reader to the science of the dog -- their perceptual and cognitive Abilities -- and uses that introduction to draw a picture of what it might be like to bea dog. It answers questions no other dog book can -- such as: What is a dog's sense of time? Does she miss me? Want friends? Know when she's been bad? Horowitz's journey, and the insights she uncovered from studying her own dog, Pumpernickel, allowed her to understand her dog better, and appreciate her more through that understanding. The reader will be able to do the same with their own dog. This is not another dog training book. Instead, Inside of a Dogwill allow dog owners to look at their pets' behaviour in a different, and revealing light, enabling them to understand their dogs and enjoy their relationship even more.

Synopsis Let Dogs Be Dogs by : Monks of New Skete
America's foremost authorities on dog care and training distill decades of experience in a comprehensive "foundational" guide for dog owners. No matter what training method or techniques you use with your dog, the training is unlikely to be optimally successful unless it is predicated on an understanding of the dog's true nature. Dogs need food, water, exercise and play, rest, veterinary care -- the basics. But since dogs naturally want to be led, they also need focused and compassionate guidance. Through abundant stories and case studies, the authors reveal how canine nature manifests itself in various behaviors, some potentially disruptive to domestic accord, and show how in addressing these behaviors you can strengthen the bond with your dog as well as keep the peace. The promise of this book is that, especially in an ever-accelerating world filled with digital distractions, you can learn from your dog's example how to live in the moment, thereby enriching your life immeasurably.
