Hunde Verstand

Dogs should not be given as gifts at Christmas. This book should be.

Dogs have been our closest companions for tens of thousands of years. And although we have never spent as much money on them as we do today, there is often a lack of fundamental understanding of their needs.

It’s high time someone clearly takes the side of the dogs. Not the caricature of the wolf in sheep's clothing that seeks to dominate its owner at the first opportunity, nor the fashion accessory or show animal that collects ribbons and trophies for its owner, but the true dog that simply wants to be part of the family.

Biologists today know far more about how dogs really think than they did twenty years ago, and John Bradshaw has played a significant role in this research. With this book, he aims to bring these new and sometimes astonishing scientific insights closer to dog owners and promote a better understanding of our best friend.
