Inside of a Dog: What Dogs See, Smell, and Know by Alexandra Horowitz

A Journey into the Canine Mind

In her groundbreaking book, Alexandra Horowitz takes us on a journey into the canine mind, revealing the extraordinary sensory abilities and cognitive capacities of our furry companions. Through a series of fascinating experiments and observations, Horowitz uncovers the hidden world of dogs, shedding light on how they perceive the world around them and interact with us.

Seeing the World Through a Dog's Eyes

Dogs see the world in a way that is both similar to and different from our own. They have a wider field of vision, allowing them to take in more of their surroundings at once. However, they are not as good at distinguishing between colors as we are, and they have difficulty seeing objects that are far away.

The Power of Smell

Dogs' sense of smell is truly remarkable. They can detect scents that are thousands of times weaker than we can, and they can use their noses to track objects and people over long distances. This incredible sense of smell is essential for dogs' survival, as they rely on it to find food, avoid danger, and communicate with each other.

Canine Cognition

Dogs are also intelligent creatures with complex cognitive abilities. They are capable of learning new tricks, solving problems, and even understanding human language. Horowitz's research reveals that dogs are not just mindless creatures, but rather sentient beings with rich inner lives.

The Human-Dog Bond

The bond between humans and dogs is one of the most special relationships in the world. Dogs provide us with unconditional love, companionship, and support. Horowitz explores the science behind this bond, revealing how dogs and humans have evolved to communicate and cooperate with each other.
