Fascinating door into a new world of communication possibilities
The author uses her experience as a speech therapist and decides to try using programmable buttons, each recording a single word, which her dog Stella can press in order to express herself. Driven by the awareness that Stella was displaying many characteristics typical of young children who are learning to communicate, Christina Hunger learned to communicate with Stella, obtaining groundbreaking insight into the ability of dogs to communicate. Stella was able to learn single words that expressed her desires - for "water" or "outside" and then progressed to more advanced communication, using combinations of buttons and expressing herself in more complex ways, such as sharing her feelings. An incredible book that is a reflection of dogs' intelligence and a glimpse into their thoughts as well as research that has significance for human speech therapy practice. A must-read.
