What the Dogs Knew is a collection of six true stories — five drawn from my twenty years as a professional dog trainer, plus a sixth, my own story, in Part Two — each one a window into what dogs are actually telling us, if we know how to listen.  This book moves past obedience and “commands” into the deeper emotional connection between dogs and the people who love them. Written and dedicated to Skye, the dog who was there for every page of it.
