The Hidden Life Of Dogs by Thomas, Elizabeth Marshall - 1993

Boston/New York: Houghton,Mifflin Company, 1993. Sixth Printing. A beautiful account of thirty years of living with dogs, wolves, and dingoes and of the ways their lives intertwined with her own. This novelist and anthropologist brings us a completely new understanding of dogs by writing a sort of deeply truthful ethological poem, a loving yet absolutely unsentimental chronicle of the lives of a dozen dogs based on hundreds of thousands of hours of observation. The book is poignant, entertaining, sometimes heartbreaking and vividly illustrated with chapter heading drawings by Jared T. Williams of the way dogs behave.
