Inside of a Dog

I love this topic and the information the author presents, but the writing is horrible. I have to re-read many sentences because they make no sense.

Lots of fun dog facts, but I didn't love the way it was put together--it's a mix of science and general observation, and I didn't ever feel like I was getting enough of either. Still worth a read, because of the fun stuff I learned (especially the chapter on smelling).

Alexandra Horowitz has done an amazing job at helping one understand the complexities of how dogs perceive the world. Though an understandably hard topic to uncover, she walks you through experiments, history, and the great umwelt of dogs. Definitely not a guide for training- but a perfect read for anyone looking to understand and enrich their dogs life better.
