Book excerpt: Do dogs really save people? Which breeds are the most heroic? The least? And why would a dog risk its life for a person? Find out in Canine Courage, a fascinating look at heroism in untrained dogs. Dogs like Bo, who dived underwater to pull his owner out from under a canoe, or Woodie who jumped off an 80 foot cliff to save her owner's fiancie from drowning. Canine Courage explores what motivates these dogs and answers other questions such as what do dogs understand of danger, how do dogs know what to do and how heroic behavior developed in dogs.
