Book - Is My Dog a Wolf?: How Your Pet Compares to Its Wild Cousin
Article Categories
by Suzy, Online Dog Coach
While this book is intended for children, it is informative, inspiring, and fun for adults too! The author examines the lives and behaviors of wolves, then demonstrates in gorgeous photographs and short text how our faithful companions have changed – and remained similar to -their distant cousins.
I love that this book is in line with our mission and values. Jenni explains why dogs dig, lick our faces, and need leaders for their “pack.” In just a few pictures, she gives an introduction to dog communication. And she has a knack for taking a photo of wild wolves that mirrors exactly the expressions of our loyal dogs.
Get this book for the history of how our dogs came to be “man’s best friend.”
