I'm just completely blown away. Speechless. WOW!!! Remember when we were talking about using your subconcious senses to listen to your dog? This woman is amazing! She does an incredible job of analysing genetic flaws in purebred dogs, connections between bad breeding and bad behavior, why they're there and what can be done in really easy language. She talks about cognitive capability in animals and explores personality and feelings.

OK! I just ordered it! I couldn't resist, being a teacher of children with autism. Maybe one of my students could help me with Rosie's behavior
