Sinossi
I cani ci conoscono dal profondo del cuore. Perché uomo e cane sono così attratti l'uno dall'altro e che cosa hanno in comune? I cani sentono ciò che noi proviamo. Ma, mentre noi umani siamo preda di mille pregiudizi, loro entrano immediatamente in sintonia con i nostri sentimenti e li riflettono, consentendoci così di conoscere la parte più autentica di noi stessi. I nostri fedeli amici sono esseri emotivi, e l'emozione è una forza della natura reale quanto quella di gravità, una fonte d'informazione spesso oscurata ai nostri occhi della ragione. Se capiremo questo, allora vedremo il cane non come un'entità separata, ma come uno specchio di quello che siamo.

"Burying the Lead" Throughout most of this book I got a very vivid picture of Mr. Behan's childhood and his relationship with his father. I got a less vivid picture of his dog theory. I think this is because the book was poorly edited. There's good or at least thought-provoking content in here, but i Leggi tutto
Although the title and cover suggested this book may help either my emotional issues or help with dog training, it did neither. The author is quite esoteric- science cannot help decipher the natural world, according to him, rather it is only real if it feels right. I read 2/3 before giving up- after Leggi tutto
This book is both an interesting philosophy and a moving autobiography of Kevin Behan. He describes his own journey as a dog trainer, studying under his father, and then moving away from his father's methods to his own 'natural dog training' model. In this book, Behan develops a new idea: that dogs
This is a good book and really challenges you as a dog owner. It puts all of the emotional responsibility on the dog owner and makes the dog seem like an infallible saint. To make this claim Behan makes a lot of bold universal claims that make the dog-human relationship seem a lot like the relations Leggi tutto
