- What other dog experts say about Tales of Two Species
This book is a gift to those of us who want to understand dogs better, to communicate with them more clearly, and perhaps most importantly to helps dogs understand us! It's rare for someone with so much scientific knowledge to have her feet so solidly planted in the real lives of dogs.
Sue Sternberg, author of Great Dog Adoption and A Guide to the Inducive Retrieve
In Tales of Two Species, Patricia McConnell gives us a thoughtful and glowing picture of how the lives of dogs and people have become entwined. Some of the essays will make you laugh, others will bring a tear, but all will make you think more closely about your relationship with your dog.
Stanley Coren, author of The Modern Dog and Why Does My Dog Act That Way?
Plato, Socrates, Descartes, McConnell - those are the great philosophers. Truly no one in our time asks the questions McConnell does about why dogs act as they do. For anyone interested in going beyond dog training, to truly begin to understand how the canine mind ticks, this book is a must.
