The Outer and Inner World of Dogs

How does the world feel for your dog – and what does science know about it?
Perhaps you've also wondered whether your dog knows what you're going to do next, or whether he can even deceive you with his behavior – whether he has a sense of fairness or even a "sixth sense"?

This book takes you on a fascinating journey into the environment and inner world of dogs – scientifically sound, up-to-date, and yet practical.
Together with experts from research and practice, Dr. Udo Gansloßer and Sarah Mertes explain how dogs hear, smell, feel, and think – and how modern research with fMRI, neurogenetics, and behavioral analysis helps us to understand them better.

Among other things, you will learn how the Earth's magnetic field affects dogs, how emotions are recognized, and how pain, age, and genetics can influence your dog's perception – and what all this means for everyday life, training, and your relationship. Numerous exercises help you apply the new knowledge directly with your dog and develop a deeper understanding of how he perceives the world.

A unique look at our most loyal companions – for everyone who wants to understand dogs with heart and mind.
