This dog book for adults will help you gain invaluable canine insight through quirky illustrations and infographics. The unique dog encyclopedia explores and explains the world of dogs: the dog in pictures--with more than 500 original illustrations; encyclopedic in scope--covers dog behavior, psychology, communication, history and dog breeds, as well as celebrity pups and record-breaking hounds; dog infographics that communicate facts and ideas in a fun way; and witty language that will both inform and entertain readers. Do you walk your dog or does your dog walk you? Can you teach an old dog new tricks? What is your dog saying with its wagging tail? The fun infographics book gives you all the essential facts about dogs to help you translate their curious canine behavior. Covering history, breeds, dog care and training, How Dogs Work is the perfect gift for dog lovers of all ages--from 9 to 109! From how dogs evolved from the wolf and our favorite pet to the finer points of working dogs and show dogs--this unique dog guide is a wonderful celebration of man's best friend! Learn what experts believe the cute doggy head tilt could mean, explore what your dog's wagging tail could be saying about their mood and discover the world's fastest dog that's twice as quick as Usain Bolt. This a must-have book for every soon-to-be dog whisperer!"--
