“Here at last, a beautiful and sensitively written book on the exceedingly important subject of dogs’ emotional lives. It is high time that somebody takes on the subject, and we owe a debt of gratitude to Jeffrey Masson for doing so fearlessly, thoroughly, and lovingly.”
Elizabeth Marshall Thommas, author,the Hidden life of dogs
“Everyone who loves dogs and who knows the ultimate joy of being loved by a dog will want this book. Buy copies for your friends who have been less fortunate. Jeffrey Masson knows like so many of us that dogs can experience joy and sorrow; fear and despair; that they can be loyal and above all loving and he is not afraid to talk about it. This searingly honest appraisal of man’s best friend will cause many people to think about dogs in an entirely different way.”
DR. Jane Goodall
