A revolutionary approach to understanding the human-canine relationship through the prism of emotion, written by a veteran dog trainer and author. He asserts that dogs don't respond to what the owner thinks, says or does but to what the owner feels, and this also means that dogs can actually put people back in touch with their own emotions.
In "Your Dog Is Your Mirror," dog trainer Kevin Behan proposes a radical new model for understanding canine behavior: a dog's behavior and emotion, indeed its very cognition, are driven by "our" emotion. The dog doesn't respond to what the owner thinks, says, or does; it responds to what the owner "feels." And in this way, dogs can actually put people back in touch with their own emotions. Behan demonstrates that dogs and humans are connected more profoundly than has ever been imagined -- by "heart" -- and that this approach to dog cognition can help us understand many of dogs' most inscrutable behaviors. This groundbreaking, provocative book opens the door to a whole new understanding between species, and perhaps a whole new understanding of ourselves.
