Have you ever wanted to get inside of a dog's mind, to know how he sees the world and what it really feels like to be a dog? Loving dogs and trying to understand them without projecting human qualities on them, has been a frustrating dilemma for dog people since the beginning of our co-evolution with canines. In her best selling book Inside of a Dog (http://www.insideofadog.com), cognitive scientist and dog lover Alexandra Horowitz evokes the dog's perspective using findings from the emerging science of dog cognition and perception (http://www.columbia.edu/~ah2240/). Listen to our conversation and take an imaginative, yet scientifically accurate, leap into the inside of a dog. Become a "dogologist" by observing your dog like a field scientist would--and you will discover the amazing animal he is. "The world is smell; it is close to the ground; it either fits in the mouth or it doesn't; it is in the moment, it is full of details, fleeting and fast; it is written all over their faces. Moving things are more interesting that still ones. It is probably nothing like what is like to be us" —Inside of a Dog : What dogs see, smell,l and know (http://www.insideofadog.com)by Alexandra Horowitz (Scribner, 2009). Director of the Horowitz Dog Cognition Laboratory.
