This book is great but may be a little in depth for the general dog owner. I'm training to become a behaviourist and it has been invaluable for my coursework, and general personal learning, but i feel it may be too indepth for an owner who just wants a book to learn a little more about their dog and how he thinks. An excellent book, but unless you find 'normal' dog books tedious and boring or are ready to take the next step into understanding your dogs psychology, this may be a miss for you. dog owners who are interested on why their dog behaves in certainways, and wants to know more would do well to buy this as it cover a range of topics including hormones, brain funcion, heretitary traits etc. But a warning this is not a training book! it is a book more interseted in the psychology of the dog, and what makes them the way they are, it may help you understand why he does what he does, but won't particlarly help you 'fix' him. Definately worth the money.
