Summary 
"What is it like to be a puppy? Author of the classic Inside of a Dog, Alexandra Horowitz tries to find out, spending a year scrutinizing her puppy's daily existence, and poring over the science of early dog development. Few of us meet our dogs at Day One. The dog who will, eventually, become an integral part of our family, our constant companion and best friend, is born without us into a family of her own. A puppy's critical early development into the dog we come to know is usually missed entirely. Dog researcher Alexandra Horowitz aimed to change that with her family's new pup, Quiddity (Quid). In this scientific memoir she charts Quid's growth from wee grub to boisterous sprite, from her birth to her first birthday. Horowitz follows Quid's first weeks with her mother and ten roly-poly littermates, and then each week after the puppy joins her household of three humans, two large dogs, and a wary cat. She documents the social and cognitive milestones that so many of us miss in our pup

She documents the social and cognitive milestones that so many of us miss in our puppies' lives, when caught up in the housetraining and behavioral training that easily overwhelms the first months of a dog's life with a new family. In focusing on training a dog to behave, we mostly miss the radical dev

Summary 
"¿Qué sienten los cachorros? Alexandra Horowitz quiere averiguarlo y para ello pasa un año observando con lupa la vida diaria de su perrita y combinándolo con los conocimientos científicos sobre el desarrollo temprano de los perros. Somos pocos los que conocemos a nuestros perros desde el día en que nacen. La investigadora canina Alexandra Horowitz quiso cambiar esto con la perrita que llegó a su hogar, Quiddity (Quid). En estas memorias científicas, Horowitz sigue las primeras semanas de la vida de Quid y documenta los hitos sociales y cognitivos de la vida de nuestros cachorros, que tantos de nosotros nos perdemos al centrarnos en adiestrarlos pero que los convierte en los perros que serán, pasando etapas equivalentes a la primera infancia, la infancia media, la preadolescencia y la adolescencia. Horowitz aprovecha los exhaustivos estudios publicados en el campo de los cambios del desarrollo canino y humano para establecer analogías entre el primer año de los perros y el de los bebés
