Renowned anthrozoologist Dr. John Bradshaw has made a career of studying human-animal interactions, and in Dog Sense he explains the essentials of canine psychology that all dog lovers need to know. From explaining why positive reinforcement is a more effective way to control dogs’ behavior than punishment to demonstrating the importance of weighing a dog’s unique personality against stereotypes about its breed, Bradshaw offers extraordinary insight into the question of how we really ought to treat our dogs.
He compiles and explains new information on the origin of dogs, their relationship with ancestral wolves and why we need to base our relationship with dogs on partnership and cooperation, not outmoded theories about dominance. He also considers dogs’ brainpower, emotional states, sensory capacities and problems that come with breeding for looks rather than temperament. In many ways, in the same way that we have moved on from hitting our kids to treating them with more care and respect, then there is no reason why we shouldn’t ‘evolve’ in the same way in respect to how we interact with man’s best friend!
Dogs and dog lovers alike will benefit from Bradshaw’s insight. You can have a well-behaved dog without resorting to dominating, aggressive tactics. This is definitely a must read for dog lovers.
