The answer - backed by decades of neuroscience and behavioural research - is yes. Dogs experience real emotions: joy, fear, sadness, grief, love, and anxiety. Not metaphors for emotion. Not behaviour patterns that merely resemble feelings. The genuine article.
Understanding Dog Emotions is the essential empathy guide for every dog owner who wants to truly understand the inner life of their dog. Oscar - a warm, expressive Yellow Labrador - walks you through the science of canine emotion and helps you learn to read what your dog is actually feeling in any situation.
Practical, science-backed, and written with deep empathy for both dogs and the humans who love them.
OUR PLEDGE: 10% of all proceeds from every copy of this book is donated to the welfare of stray and orphan dogs. Every purchase directly helps a dog who has no voice and no home.
