How well do we really know puppies? People may enjoy thinking about them as "man's best ally", but what actually drives the items they do? What is going on in their fur-covered heads as they look at us using their big, expressive eyes? Raymond Coppinger and Draw Feinstein know something about these questions, and with How Dogs Work, they're ready to show; this is their guide to understanding your pet and its patterns. Approaching puppies as a natural species rather than simply as house animals, Coppinger and Feinstein accessibly synthesize years of research and field experiments to clarify the evolutionary foundations root dog actions. They analyze the central need for the shape of puppies: how their physical body affects behavior, how shape interacts with the surroundings as animals expand, and how all this has developed as time passes. Shape, they tell us, is why is a champ sled dog or a Boundary collie that can effectively herd sheep. Other chapters in How Dogs Work explore such mysteries as why puppies play; whether puppies have minds, in case so, what kinds of things they might know; why puppies bark; how pet dogs give food to and forage; and the effect of the early relationship between mother and pup.
