Pressestimmen
""Inside of a Dog" is a most welcome authoritative, personal, and witty book about what it is like to be a dog. This engaging volume serves as a corrective to the many myths that circulate about just who our canine companions are. I hope this book enjoys the wide readership it deserves." -- Marc Bekoff, author of "The Emotional Lives of Animals and Wild Justice: The Moral Lives of Animals" (with Jessica Pierce)
Kurzbeschreibung
As an unabashed dog lover, Alexandra Horowitz is naturally curious about what her dog thinks and what she knows. As a cognitive scientist she is intent on understanding the minds of animals who cannot say what they know or feel.
This is a fresh look at the world of dogs -- from the dog's point of view. The book introduces the reader to the science of the dog -- their perceptual and cognitive Abilities -- and uses that introduction to draw a picture of what it might be like to be a dog. It answers questions no other dog book can -- such as: What is a dog's sense of time? Does she miss me? Want friends? Know when she's been bad? Horowitz's journey, and the insights she uncovered from studying her own dog, Pumpernickel, allowed her to understand her dog better, and appreciate her more through that understanding. The reader will be able to do the same with their own dog.
This is not another dog training book. Instead, Inside of a Dog will allow dog owners to look at their pets' behaviour in a different, and revealing light, enabling them to understand their dogs and enjoy their relationship even more.

Alexandra Horowitz tries to immerse into the world of a dog. How is it like to be at knee hight, smelling past present and future and what do dogs think about us humans? This book is certainly not a "step by step - how to raise your dog" but it will really help you understand your dog. I would recommend this book to every dog owner. I had a dog for 15 years and reading this book, many actions of my dog have become a lot clearer and I really enjoyed the scientific part of it. While dogs are masters of reading us, we need to learn how to read them. I also recommend "canine behaviour" by Barbara Handelman in combination with this book. If you want to know how to teach your dog tricks etc you will have to look at different literature though.

i received this book as a gift and was really excited about reading it. after about 20 pages my enthusiasm waned considerably. ms. horowitz is possibly someone with whom it would be fun to chat on a dog walk in riverside park, but reading her prose is a chore. there is some interesting information included, especially the sections on smell and vision, but her chatty, verbose style is off-putting and most of the information she presents is available elsewhere in a more concise, better structured format (gwen bailey does a great job relating much of this info in about 10 pages in 'the perfect puppy').
read a few pages of the book before you buy. like the book 'eat pray love,' if you enjoy the breezy, chatty, whimsical style of the authoress, you will enjoy meandering along with her on her journey and won't mind the very low infomation-to-page ratio. if you don't enjoy her style, you might find the book more useful as a sleeping aide.

Ich habe mir das Buch bewusst in Englischer Sprache bestellt da es zum einen deutlich günstiger war und zum anderen eine gute Übung nebenher ist. Zur Englischen Sprache: ich bin eigentlich ganz gut in Englisch muss aber doch einige Fachbegriffe nachschlagen, ist nicht ganz leicht geschrieben. Inhaltlich kann ich das Buch wärmstens empfehlen, die Autorin schreibt klar, gut struckturiert und wissenschaftlich fundiert. Ein gutes Buch und jetzt verstehe ich meinen Hund wirklich um einiges besser!
Absolute Kaufempfehlung!!!
