I really didn't enjoy this at all. Which is a surprise, since I adore to read about dogs. But this book didn't offer any new information (other than offering an explanation for why Buns peed around Mary - because she's so tall!); what was the most upsetting was that the man didn't actually seem to like dogs very much. Also, the book really discounted the connection between a dog and its owner. And, I must admit, the gene-therapy at the end, I could only skim... it was a little too boring. Oh - and this book made a one paragraph dismissal of Rupert Sheldrake's entire book.
