Man in not ape. Dog is not wolf.

Now, in their purely domestic roles, we fail to understand their needs. And it is time someone stood up for dogdom – for the real dog, the pet that wants to be one of the family and enjoy life.
Understanding dogs, what they are, and why they do the things they do, gives an insight into what makes them tick. Understanding how they are affected by the things we do enables us to train and live with our pets more
