Newfane dog trainer Kevin Behan has spent a lifetime working with dogs and observing how they interact with their owners. In his new book, "Your Dog Is Your Mirror: The Emotional Capacity of Our Dogs and Ourselves", Behan explores the connections between people and their dogs. Behan argues that dogs innately desire harmony and equilibrium, and when they act out it’s a reaction to something that out of sync in their environment, or in their owner’s emotional state. Some of his ideas may press dog owners to reconsider what their dogs’ behavior says about them.
Kevin Behan will be reading at Northshire Bookstore in Manchester on Friday, February 18, at 7 p.m.
