Synopsis

Three Dimensional Dog is a full-color, easy-to-understand exploration of the canine mind that answers the ultimate question, "Why did my dog just do that?"Through this journey we discover that everything a dog does, thinks, and feels is part of a larger, connected system of behavior; a system that unfolds logically over time, like a story with a beginning, middle, and end.What is revealed is a rational, child-like intelligence on a desperate search for connection within secure relationships.Dogs are no longer seen as simple, mechanical creatures, but rather as creative problem-solvers capable of open-ended innovation and clever manipulation.This book features high-resolution, color photography of the specific dogs that are discussed as case studies.
