The bestselling book that asks what dogs know and how they think. The answers will surprise and delight you as Alexandra Horowitz, a cognitive scientist, explains how dogs perceive their daily worlds, each other, and that other quirky animal, the human.

Horowitz introduces the reader to dogs' perceptual and cognitive abilities and then draws a picture of what it might be like to be a dog. What's it like to be able to smell not just every bit of open food in the house but also to smell sadness in humans, or even the passage of time? How does a tiny dog manage to play successfully with a Great Dane? What is it like to hear the bodily vibrations of insects or the hum of a fluorescent light? Why must a person on a bicycle be chased? What's it like to use your mouth as a hand? In short, what is it like for a dog to experience life from two feet off the ground, amidst the smells of the sidewalk, gazing at our ankles or knees?

Inside of a Dog explains these things and much more. The answers can be surprising--once we set aside our natural inclination to anthropomorphize dogs. Inside of a Dog also contains up-to-the-minute research--on dogs' detection of disease, the secrets of their tails, and their skill at reading our attention--that Horowitz puts into useful context. Although not a formal training guide, Inside of a Dog has practical application for dog lovers interested in understanding why their dogs do what they do. With a light touch and the weight of science behind her, Alexandra Horowitz examines the animal we think we know best but may actually understand the least. This book is as close as you can get to knowing about dogs without being a dog yourself.

Great staple slip dress
This dress is more on the expensive side for a slip but it is SO cute and flattering. The low cut back is stunning and the material is soft and has some give to it. Super simple and sexy.

True to size
Size: 9.5, Color: Tusk
I want to start off by saying I ordered a 9 and 1/2 and these fit perfectly so they are true to size. They are fairly comfortable in the heel isn't too high but is wide so they're very stable to walk in. They look great and can be styled in a variety of ways I have worn them with jeans but also a nice sundress and it works both ways. I've been wearing these for several months and they've held up really well and still look great.

Daughter ranks it 5/5. I rank them 4/5 due to heel comfort.
Size: 8, Color: Black, Size: 8, Color: Black
My foot is 9.44 inches long which usually places me in a 7.5. For this chart, it suggested the size 8. It's a perfect fit. The back zipper is easy enough to use. You don't even really need to undo the top strap once you have it adjusted to your preferred spot. My foot is narrow to normal around the heel and I'm wider in the toe box. These heels accommodate that well. I have plenty of room around my toes. The toe strap isn't smashing down either. The shoes seems well-made. The straps do not have a threads hanging. There's no sloppy glue drips around the bed. The bottom is strong and the heel is solid. I'm not a huge fan of thicker/chunky heel looks usually. I like the skinner heel styles mostly but ... there's a big positive to the chunky heels. They're very easy to walk in. Great heels for non-formal occasions. The bottom is not slippery. The cushioning around the toes in very nice. My only complaint is that the cushioning by the heel feels inadequate- especially at this price. It feels like you're walking on a block of wood. For that reason, I gave them to my middle schooler. She's thrilled. She pranced around the house in them testing them out for herself. She adjusted well to walking in them and she finds them comfy.

Lucky Brand womens Herrika
Size: 9, Color: Smoke Grey
These shoes are some of the comfiest heels I've ever worn! The heel actually has a nice height to it, but it's at a gentle slope that feels very comfortable. The heel itself is thicker, which makes it easier to walk, and I love the ankle strap for added security. The shoe's construction is solid, the materials are durable, and the zipper at the back of the ankle moves smoothly. I got the smoke grey color, which I think is really more of a lighter skin tone color, so I don't really agree with the name, but the color is accurately represented by the photos on the product page. This is a great neutral shoe that will pair with many different outfits. It's high quality and versatile, so I think it's well worth the cost. I love my new shoes!
