I'm a maverick scholar, known for disproving many scientific hypotheses. In this book,. I show that dogs domesticated themselves. They weren't tamed by humans. My conclusions come both from my lifelong experiences with dogs and from cutting edge science in dog studies, a hot topic in academia today. Becsuse I taught science for 40 years, I know how to write it so that it's not dry or stilted in any way. Reviewers have praised it highly as a real page turner.
Dogs have unexpected inborn behaviors as I've shown in the Prologue, the Bubbles about Ishmael and now about Pooh. What they do is uncanny and nobody could teach them what they do.

Promptly at 2:00 a.m., she always walked by
