Of course, learning body language is essential but I think dogs have been vastly underestimated by the scientific community and Chaser goes a long way in remedying that situation. I'll look forward to writing your blog post on Chaser!Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06801627181926444988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6807810969937843852.post-14749466087465720222013-10-19T13:56:56.243-04:002013-10-19T13:56:56.243-04:00I loved this book, too, Darlene. will be writing a...I loved this book, too, Darlene. will be writing about it on Scratchings and sniffings soon but I am so enjoying other posts about it. We agree on the value of the book and I am a firm believer that our Emily, a TreeWalker hound, not only understands much of what we say to her... she wants to talk back to us!Yvonnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02602726904285186787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6807810969937843852.post-87765364362521798782013-10-18T18:57:36.053-04:002013-10-18T18:57:36.053-04:00Glad the Golden loved it!

Whilst we all appreciate the intelligence of our canine companions, "Chaser's" intelligence is remarkable. Having said that, much credit must be given to her human companion for the patience that produced such a result. The book will undoubtedly be both entertaining and informative.Gordonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6807810969937843852.post-55261662089372015752013-10-17T21:00:04.974-04:002013-10-17T21:00:04.974-04:00Thank you!

We know how intelligent dogs are and now their is scientific proof but, personally, I think anecdotal evidence like this tells us what we need to know, scientific community aside. It's so important to learn to read body language!

I’ve always sworn they understood every word she said to them, as she worked from home and was pretty much with them 24/7. When we first moved to the farm, she and her first boy (Dudley, one of my babies) came over. He was NOT a licker. We were outside, saying goodbye. “Dudley, if you want to get in the car and go home, you have to give Grandma a kiss.” He gave her one of THOSE looks, then walked over to me and gave me a single big schlurp. He then walked to the car door and gave her “Well, I did it. Now let’s GO!” I have NEVER forgotten that example!Lynnenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6807810969937843852.post-80872145134511734602013-10-17T12:47:38.424-04:002013-10-17T12:47:38.424-04:00It really is, Chris!

I deliberately slowed my reading down towards the end because I hated to see the book end and wanted to savor every word. <br />As a devoted cat person you know how intelligent cats are. They, too, know what we're saying. But at this point, we can only prove it anecdotally. Who knows what might happen in the future?
