There's a tiny amount of domesticated wolf in all of us. The relationship between canids and humans goes back nearly 40,000 years, when dogs split away from wolves. With our dogs, we have traveled the ancient track from hunter-gatherers to modern humans. However, this track now seems to offer an uncertain future for humankind and society.

Learning from Dogs shows how and why now, more than ever, we humans need to learn from our dogs. At times the book relates personal stories through autobiography, diary, and blog entries. Other times it reinforces a point with speculative and imaginative fictional narrative. Throughout the book, there is a foundation about the history of wolves, dogs, and humans, as the author injects factual research to assist us to more fully understand the importance of this unique relationship.

With just the right blend of humor, story-telling, perception, compassion, and insight, the author shares his unusual perspective and how he came to share what he's learned through a lifetime of observation and interaction with dogs.

Readers who love dogs, or any animals, will connect with this book and become more fully aware of why our animal friends are valuable to learn from to help us heal the challenges of the 21st century. Occasionally launching into intellectual tangents that will provide intrigue and inspiration for the heart and soul, the book ultimately returns to the central thesis: "What we can (and should) learn from dogs."

Pat Shipman, retired adjunct professor of anthropology at The Pennsylvania State University, and the author of The Animal Connection and The invaders; How Humans and Their Dogs Drove Neanderthals to Extinction, described the book as, "both wise and thoughtful. It also includes some of the best writing about the intimate and special relationship between dogs and humans I have ever read."

Beautiful, Warm Faux Fur Blanket
Color: Marble Beige & Grey Chocolate, Size: 60"x80", Color: Marble Beige & Grey Chocolate, Size: 60"x80"
This faux rabbit fur blanket is beautiful, and it goes with everything. It's very soft and just heavy enough to be warm and comfortable, without being heavy. It appears to be durable and colorfast after the first wash, without any noticeable shedding. I bought the "Marble Beige and Grey Chocolate" one, and I'm very happy with it. The marble swirl of natural-looking brown colors reminds me of Swensen's chocolate eclair ice cream!

The most amazing blanket EVER!!!
I just got this yesterday and I’m obsessed already. It’s the softest thing I’ve ever touched. The reverse side is also a super soft velour-like feel. I got the Marble Charcoal Grey in 60x80. It looks exactly like the photos and it’s truly a bubble design too. Looks so good draped across my bed. And it’s HEAVY! Literally feels like a weighted blanket on top of being unbelievably soft and cozy. Now I want to get the largest size for even more heavy, snuggly bliss. I slept with it last night along with my normal blanket and I fell asleep much quicker than usual. It does shed a bit on my black clothes but I don’t even care lol. The packaging it arrives in makes it wonderfully gift-able and also lets you know it’s a women-owned company. Didn’t arrive with any bad smells either. All the stitching is immaculate, really everything about this blanket is. I got it on a Black Friday deal for $20% off at $51, it’s worth every penny and feels like a steal to be honest. The quality is unmatched. I’ll have to refrain from buying every single color!
