Dog lover on your list? Dog Smart by Jennifer Holland is perfect.

What this episode covers

Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear. I’m Fred Fishkin. If you have a dog lover for a Dad….or are one yourself, a new book from New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Holland is a title you won’t want to miss. The sub-title is Life Changing Lessons in Canine Intelligence and Holland introduces us to some remarkable dogs and imparts lots of wisdom along the way. For instance our perception of what makes a dog smart… “If they don’t respond to our commands it doesn’t necessarily mean they are dumb. We need to think outside of the human way of thinking and think what is a dog’s way of seeing the world is really through the nose, for example. And so why not sort of give them more credit for that olfactory intelligence that they use in so many remarkable ways.” Lots to learn here…and all fun. The title again is Dog Smart – Life Changing Lessons in Canine Intelligence. You can find us at Techstination.com. I’m Fred Fishkin.
