Dogs Never Lie About Love: Reflections on the Emotional World of Dogs
by Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson
List Price: $14.00
Our Price: $11.20
You Save: $2.80 (20%)
Paperback - 274 pages 1 Pbk Ed edition (September 1998)
In Dogs Never Lie
About Love, Masson finds plenty of new things to say about canines. "Dogs feel more than I do," Masson
asserts. "They feel more, and they feel more purely and more intensely. In searching for why we are so inhibited compared
with dogs, perhaps we can learn to be as direct, as honest, as straightforward, and especially as
intense in our feelings as dogs are."
Masson offers several proofs that dogs do take the high moral
road--one police pooch, for instance, refused to acknowledge his handler's attack command. A
good thing, too, since Masson himself would have been the victim! In more ways than one, Dogs
Never Lie About Love is a Milk-Bone masterpiece.

by Elizabeth Marshall Thomas, Bill Grose (Editor)

Our Price: $5.20
You Save: $1.30 (20%)
Paperback Reprint edition (March 1995)
The New York Times bestselling author of The Tribe of Tiger brings readers an unsentimental
chronicle of the lives of a dozen dogs. This book has touched the hearts of animal lovers
everywhere--spending over nine months as a bestseller--providing a new perspective on how dogs
think and live--and why. Thomas--a
trained scientist and novelist who brings her storytelling skills fully to
bear in this beautifully written study--explains that, years ago, she realized that "despite a vast array
of publications on dogs, virtually nobody...had ever bothered to ask what dogs do when left to
themselves." And so she set out to ask just that.

Reading the Dog's Mind: Learning to Train from the Dog's Point of View
by John Holmes, Mary Holmes
List Price: $14.95
Our Price: $11.96
You Save: $2.99 (20%)
Paperback - 207 pages (October 1998)
Authors John and Mary Holmes do an excellent job of describing the inner nature of dogs and the
instinctual traits that dictate their behavior. Key to the Holmes's approach is the basic premise that
by understanding your dog's natural instincts, namely the five senses (sight, sound, smell, hearing, and
touch), you can better train and control your dog. Other topics covered include choosing the best type of dog for your needs, finding the right breeding
mate for your dog, and identifying those dogs that are best suited for service work.
