Belgian Sheepdogs Book

For someone who is a canine ethologist, I feel like most of Csanyi's statements about dogs are backed up with very little science. The stories he tells about his dogs are charming, but they strike me as extremely anthropomorphic and difficult if not impossible to prove. (One example: He claims that a dachshund who was best friends with a rabbit refused to eat rabbit stew for the rest of his life, in deference to his rabbit friend. Umm. Unlikely.) There are some interesting studies in here -- I particularly liked the one on seeing-eye dogs and how they tend to make decisions for their handlers -- but overall, the book was a rather confused jumble of animal stories and dog anecdotes. The translation also read in a very stiff and stilted way. I, of course, have no idea how it would have read in Hungarian.
