"Learning a dog's worldview, altering it (within bounds), accepting a dog's understanding as sometimes more reliable than a man's - these commonplace tools of dog training are a mild cultural treason. The rare dog handlers who, by gift or necessity, become truly dangerous inhabit a reality most of us can scarcely imagine - every day they share the thoughts, habits, tics and aspirations of a genuinely alien mind."
