Know Your Dog

A practical handbook for dog owners discusses such important topics as hierarchy and pecking order, dominant and submissive actions, leadership, motivation, and much more. By the author of Know Your Cat. 40,000 first printing.

Is that dog snarling--or smiling? These expressions and many other nuances of canine body language are clearly and charmingly explained and illustrated in Fogle's latest popular work on pet behavior (following Know Your Cat , LJ 1/92). Over 350 photographs capture variations in facial expression and stance demonstrated by a wide variety of dogs, from Chihuahuas to Great Danes and from newborn to geriatric, as they engage in a broad range of interesting, and often amusing, activities. The accompanying text succinctly interprets each situation and offers advice on dealing with problems. Public library patrons, young and old, will be entertained and educated by this beautiful and informative book.
