"No dog-lover should be without this book and if you're thinking of getting a dog, then you may be put off for life. Simon Whaley has our canine friends sussed, so forget the books by professional behaviourists, between 100 Ways For A Dog To Train Its Human and 100 Muddy Paws For Thought, the author has left no stone unturned to expose what calculating, conniving creatures populate the dog world. Verdict: Brilliant! Loved It" THE NEW WRITER - January/February 2005 Over 50,000 copies sold

| Excerpts: Our humans pretend to get upset when we get muddy but we know they expect it really. At last, gems of doggy wisdom on how to wear your mud with pride! On those wet, windy, wintry walks when you're as dirty and as slimy as you can get, don't slip and slide frenetically as you try and clamber over a stile. Let your human sweep you up into their arms and gently carry you over, while you watch the remnants of that cow pat transfer from your coat to theirs. Responsible humans like to know where you are at all times. Be considerate and tell them where you've been, by leaving a trail of muddy footprints across all floor surfaces. It's only since humans have domesticated dogs that you've had to be clean. Go ancestral. Get dirty!
