IF DOGS COULD TALK

Product Description

Author - Vilmos Csanyi - Publisher - Sutton

Every dog owner knows that there's something special about the degree of mutual understanding that exists between humans and dogs. Now, Vilmos Csanyi traces the roots of this unique relationship back to the unusual circumstances in which the two species co-evolved over many millennia.

The author argues that the alliance of dogs and humans arose from behavioural traits present in the original wolves from which all modern dogs are descended. Wolves, like humans, are highly intelligent social predators, with well-developed cooperative problem-solving and communications skills. These basic intellectual skills were refined and enhanced over tens of thousands of years forming the unique bond between dogs and their owners that exists today.
