About this product

Product Information

Chaser has a way with words. She knows over a thousand of them - more than any other animal of any species except humans. In addition to common nouns like house, ball and tree, she has memorized the names of more than one thousand toys and can retrieve any of them on command. Based on that learning, she and her owner and trainer, retired psychologist John Pilley, have moved on to further impressive feats, demonstrating her ability to understand sentences with multiple elements of grammar and to learn new behaviours by imitation. Yet astonishingly, Chaser isn't unique. John's training methods can be adopted by any dog lover. While sharing the poignant story of raising Chaser, John shows how to incorporate learning into play and more effectively channel a dog's natural drives. His work with Chaser points us towards a new way of relating to our canine companions that takes into account our evolving understanding of the way animals and humans learn.

Attention Border Collies !! We are on to you
Such an interesting insight to the mind of a Border Collie, Chaser. Dr Pilley and Chaser have such a special bond and this book has helped me understand and form that same relationship with my very special boy. You know your BC is intelligent but do you know how intelligent he really is? You will undoubtedly learn from this funny and heartwarming narrative of the lives of these two friends. An absolute must read for any scientist, psychologist, Border Collie or dog lover. Watch the YouTube clips too.
