Publisher's Summary
Every dog owner knows that along with the joy can come the stress and frustration of behavioral problems, which are expensive to diagnose and treat. Enter Kim Brophey, award-winning canine behavior consultant.
Using cutting-edge research, Brophey has developed a groundbreaking system that allows owners to identify what their dog is struggling with, why, and how they can fix it. Brophey's approach is unlike anything that has been published before and will give dog owners a new understanding of what motivates and affects their dog's behavior. Brophey's innovative technique rethinks the way we categorize dogs, and distills information from over 20 scientific disciplines into four comprehensive elements: learning, environment, genetics, and self. With revolutionary tips for specific dog breeds, this book will change the life of every dog owner and lead to happier human-canine relationships.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 11
Generations of dogs have been labeled training lemons for requiring actual motivation when all along they were perfectly normal. Numerous other completely and utterly normal dogs have been branded as canine misfits simply because they grew up to act like dogs. Barking, chewing, sniffing, licking, jumping up, and occasionally (just like people) having arguments are as normal and natural for dogs as wagging tails and burying bones.

We keep dogs and are kept by them. We love dogs and (we assume) we are loved by them. We buy them sweaters, toys, shoes; we are concerned with their social lives, their food, and their health. The story of humans and dogs is thousands of years old but is far from understood. In Our Dogs, Ourselves, Alexandra Horowitz explores all aspects of this unique and complex relationship that “dog lovers will savor and absorb” (Shelf Awareness). As Horowitz considers the current culture of dogdom, she reveals the odd, surprising, and contradictory ways we live with dogs.

Highly highly recommend this book
I highly recommend this book as either a prerequisite to owning a dog, or just to better understand your current dog. The accuracy of the breed types had me laughing so many times, especially during the Natural dog, Terriers, and bulldog chapters. Spot on. I love love love this book and just ordered the hard copy to have on hand and also sent to a few canine enthusiasts friends of mine who are also purchasing.
Thank you for the great listen/ read!

Better understand your dog
Dog's perspective and background really well explained. Better understanding of their needs vs our expectations. Good examples of ways to adapt to their needs.

A MUST READ for dog people both professional and pet owners!
As a longtime industry professional, I wish this book was around when I was first learning! This would have saved me YEARS of learning and relearning. This book draws a very clear picture of the dogs’ unique self and how to understand them from their perspective, but with a strong dose of science behind it! I’ve read and reread more times than I can count! It’s my staple and go to for client resource material
