Areas of Special Expertise
Dogs, dogs, dogs...but especially

Canine Science: I write extensively on veterinary, genetics, senses and other science topics. Clients include veterinary and dog food companies.

Breeds: My Encyclopedia of Dog Breeds is the top selling breed encyclopedia. Animal Planet and PetFinder use my profiles on their websites.

Competitions: My Show Me! is the top selling book about showing your dog.


What I Do

I write about dogs: 34 books, thousands of magazine and web articles, an occasional television script and even an app. I've been a columnist for Dog World,  AKC Family Dog, Show Sight  and Canine Chronicle, and a regular writer for Purina.

I win awards for writing about dogs: Dog Writer Association of America Maxwell Award (nine times), Canine Health Foundation Award (twice), Eukanuba Canine Health Award (twice), Morris Animal Foundation Award, DWAA Denlinger Award and several veterinary awards.

I study dogs: My Ph.D. (Florida State) was earned with research interests in canine senses, genetics and behavior. I'm still studying.

I talk about dogs: I've been a guest on television and radio, including NPR's Talk of the Nation, and quoted in many publications, including Newsweek and USA Today.

I live with dogs: Not only live with, but compete with dogs. My dogs and I have won Best in Show, High in Trial (in both obedience and agility) and Best in Field awards. I share my life with eight salukis and one sort-of-if-you-squint Russell Terrier who conspire to show me I don't know as much about dogs as I think I do.
