Understanding Your Dog's World

How Dogs Think, Learn, and Interpret Human Behaviour for Calm, Trust-Based Living

By: Martyn Wilson

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Dogs live in the same world as we do, but they understand it in a completely different way. Where humans rely on stories, logic, and intention, dogs rely on scent, movement, association, and emotion. This gap creates most of the everyday misunderstandings between people and their dogs. Once you learn to see behaviour through your dog’s eyes, everything becomes clearer.

Understanding Your Dog’s World is a light hearted, practical look at canine behaviour from the dog’s point of view. Instead of blaming stubbornness, dominance, or spite, this book explains what your dog is actually responding to in real time. You will learn why dogs bark at “nothing”, why they pull even when they know how to walk nicely, why they seem to forget training outdoors, why rescue dogs react to harmless objects, and why so many human behaviours accidentally confuse them.

Inside, you will discover:

• Why dogs do not remember the past the way humans do
• How smell, hearing, and vision shape their reality
• Why fear, excitement, and overwhelm drive behaviour more than training
• How dogs read human body language with surprising accuracy
• Why barking, jumping, chasing, and guarding make perfect sense to dogs
• How habits form, how instincts influence behaviour, and how real change happens
• What dogs need to feel safe, confident, and understood

Written with warmth, clarity, and humour, this book is designed for owners, foster carers, and anyone who wants a calmer, happier relationship with their dog. Whether you share your home with a confident companion or a sensitive rescue, you will learn how to communicate more clearly, support more effectively, and finally understand what your dog has been trying to tell you all along.

See the world the way your dog sees it, and watch your relationship transform.
