【Feature】
This book is not a practical guide to how to choose the right breed of dog for us, nor to learn how to better train your animal or make it a model of obedience; rather, it reveals the cognitive skills that are specific to dogs and that make their personality nothing more and nothing less.
There are approximately two billion dogs in the world. It is the oldest animal species domesticated by and for humans (even before the advent of agriculture, nearly 15,000 years ago!). But this cohabitation has not been without consequences for the evolution of our canine friends.
So how did these Labradors, Chihuahuas, Poodles and German Shepherds, to name a few, gradually differentiate themselves by developing their characteristic skills and personalities? Studies in recent years in comparative psychology now allow us to better understand this world of dogs. All from a common ancestor with the wolf, our faithful companions are much more talented than one might think.
