Product description

In this book, the scientist specializing in animal behavior, or the man who spoke to animals, birds, and fish in his first book "The King Solomon's Ring" — returns to his beloved world, the world of domesticated animals, especially the relationship between humans and dogs. This relationship that extends for more than fifteen thousand years, where the dog is the first domesticated animal, and between the two species a long history of transformation and development, from deep friendship, and participation in hunting, herding, farming, pulling, carrying, moving, and playing. Humans have many animals, and many owners, but the dog has only one friend or companion, and in this book, Lorenz explains how this relationship was and how it will be, starting from choosing the dog, training it, understanding its nature, and how to treat it based on what is required of the dog, whether it is a dog to perform a specific task, such as hunting, herding, or service in police and wars, or it is a companion for humans in their loneliness and isolation from others. Lorenz sees that the love the dog offers to humans is unconditional love, pure love, without a plan, and without compensation, except for the hand that pets it and gives it food. Humans must offer love that is exactly like this pure love. Conrad doubts that we can; for no matter what we do, the dog will remain the first in love, and will remain the most loyal friend to humans. Author: Konrad Lorenz
