Elaine New York, NY 12/7/2009 4:17:15 PM I read this book! It was fantastic. I just picked it up thinking to read one or two chapters, and before I knew it, I was halfway through. It is great reading, and the stories are touching and exciting. Not sad and maudlin, but real and exciting. I couldn't get through the day without long walks with my two Dachshunds. This book explains in scientific detail what is going on with the bond between you and your dog. Pick it up, it is addicting.
