“An informative, well-written book on the evolution of all canids, including the wild types (wolves, coyotes, jackals, and dingoes)…Recommended.”—Choice Of the world’s dogs, fewer than two hundred million are pets, living with humans who provide food, shelter, squeaky toys, and fashionable sweaters. But roaming the planet are four times as many dogs who are their own masters—neighborhood dogs, dump dogs, mountain dogs. They are dogs, not companions, and these dogs, like pigeons or squirrels, are highly adapted scavengers who have evolved to fit particular niches in the vicinity of humans. This book present an eye-opening analysis of the evolution and adaptations of these unleashed dogs and what they can reveal about the species as a whole. Exploring the natural history of these animals, canine behavior experts Raymond and Lorna Coppingers explain how the village dogs of Vietnam, India, Africa, and Mexico are strikingly similar. These feral dogs, argue the Coppingers, are in fact the truly archetypal dogs, nearly uniform in size and shape and incredibly self-sufficient. Drawing on nearly five decades of research, they show how dogs actually domesticated themselves in order to become such efficient scavengers of human refuse. The Coppingers also examine the behavioral characteristics that enable dogs to live successfully and to reproduce, unconstrained by humans, in environments that we ordinarily do not think of as dog friendly. A fascinating exploration of what it actually means, genetically and behaviorally, to be a dog, What Is a Dog? is likely to change the way beagle or bulldog owners reflect on their four-legged friends.

Chronicles Yoffe's journey from cat person to dog lover. She was in for some surprises when she took in a neurotic rescued beagle to satisfy her daughter; the transformation begins with consternation and culminates with real affection as she becomes a foster mother to a series of homeless beagles; she studies (without success) to be a pet psychic; and she visits the Department of Homeland Security to watch sausage- and incendiary device-sniffing canines in action. She finds that everyone who has ever owned a dog has a story to tell, and becomes the repository for adventures of heroic, lovable, lazy, malodorous, phlegmatic and incontinent dogs--this book delivers some of the most outlandish and certainly the funniest dog stories on record. But, at its heart, it tells how Yoffe's family turned Sasha, the skittish stray, into a wonderful pet--and how Sasha transformed Yoffe into a dog-lover for life.--From publisher description.
