There's a tiny amount of domesticated wolf in all of us. The relationship between canids and humans goes back nearly 40,000 years, when dogs split away from wolves. With our dogs, we have traveled the ancient track from hunter-gatherers to modern humans. However, this track now seems to offer an uncertain future for humankind and society.

Learning from Dogs shows how and why now, more than ever, we humans need to learn from our dogs. At times the book relates personal stories through autobiography, diary, and blog entries. Other times it reinforces a point with speculative and imaginative fictional narrative. Throughout the book, there is a foundation about the history of wolves, dogs, and humans, as the author injects factual research to assist us to more fully understand the importance of this unique relationship.

With just the right blend of humor, story-telling, perception, compassion, and insight, the author shares his unusual perspective and how he came to share what he's learned through a lifetime of observation and interaction with dogs.

Readers who love dogs, or any animals, will connect with this book and become more fully aware of why our animal friends are valuable to learn from to help us heal the challenges of the 21st century. Occasionally launching into intellectual tangents that will provide intrigue and inspiration for the heart and soul, the book ultimately returns to the central thesis: "What we can (and should) learn from dogs."

Pat Shipman, retired adjunct professor of anthropology at The Pennsylvania State University, and the author of The Animal Connection and The invaders; How Humans and Their Dogs Drove Neanderthals to Extinction, described the book as, "both wise and thoughtful. It also includes some of the best writing about the intimate and special relationship between dogs and humans I have ever read."

Decent blanket but thin
I love a good throw. This one is visually very appealing, easy to wash, and soft. While I’d love to rate it higher, honestly it just feels too thin to really provide any warmth. It feels more like a blanket for pets than for people. It’s pretty and my kitties will really enjoy it, but it just feels okay at best for me as a cold-running person.

10/10 Would Buy Again
Color: 03- Tie Dye Black, Size: King (108" X 90")
This is absolutely the softest blanket I have ever purchased. It fits perfectly and looks amazing. The material is soft and comfortable. It's easy to clean and it's so warm. The faux fur is so soft and plush. Great quality. Great price.

The ultimate "cozy" blanket—thick, soft, and incredibly warm
Color: 03- Tie Dye Black, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
his Bedsure blanket is the definition of comfort. One side features a velvety smooth faux fur while the other is a thick, plush Sherpa fleece. It’s significantly heavier than a standard throw, making it perfect for cold nights. The black color is deep and rich, and I’ve been impressed that it doesn't shed at all, even after several washes. It drapes beautifully over a couch or bed and adds an instant touch of luxury to the room. It’s the perfect size (50"x60") for curling up with a book or a movie.

Buy this now!!!
Color: 15- Teal, Size: King (108" X 90")
This is probably one of my favorite purchases from Amazon. I have washed it at least 10 times so far and it still looks the same as when I bought it. It is so soft and snuggly I love it so much. The color is beautiful the furry side is soft and the bottom side has Sherpa on it which is also soft. It's not super heavy and it keeps me warm and it fits my king size bed perfectly. It is such a good value for the money and the quality of it is amazing do yourself a favor and purchase this you will get the best Sleep Quality of your life I swear. I wish I would have had this years ago I don't know what took me so long to find it I have bought several blankets and ended up throwing them away because I did not like the way they felt. This one will be a keeper.
