    10 Things You Didn't Know About Your Dog and 10 Top Tips to Make Your Dog Happier & Healthier 

    Even Dr. Marty Becker, a veteran veterinarian and life-time dog lover who has written 23 books, doesn't know why his dog gets that silly grin on his face when he scoots across the expensive silk rug bought on a trip to China. But he does know why he has a white tip on his tail, a little pocket about halfway down the outside of his ear, and that dogs are one of the few animals that can breathe in-and-out at the same time with separate nostrils! He also knows that there's only one greatest dog in the world, and each of us has him or her. Dr. Marty Becker shares 10 things you don't know about your dog and 10 tips, proven by science, to optimize your dog's health, happiness, and longevity.
    Dr. Becker graduated from Washington State University's College of Veterinary Medicine. He says, "I went to veterinary school to become a dairy practitioner, but after listening to an amazing introductory talk from Dean Leo Bustad about the human-animal bond, I switched to a companion animal focus the first hour of the first day of veterinary school." He spent the next four decades practicing veterinary medicine in Idaho (owning or co-owning several hospitals), lecturing to veterinarians on six continents, teaching as an adjunct professor at three colleges of veterinary medicine, writing 25 books (selling over eight million copies with three New York Times bestsellers), his most recent being From Fearful to Fear Free: A Positive Program to Free Your Dog from Anxiety, Fears, and Phobias, which he co-authored with Dr. Lisa Radosta, Dr. Wailani Sung, and Mikkel Becker. In 2016, he co-founded Fear Free, whose mission is to prevent and alleviate fear, anxiety, and stress in pets by inspiring and educating the people who care for them.
