Narrated by Desmond Morris Why does your dog bolt its food, fetch sticks, cock its leg, lick your face or go round in circles before lying down?
Lurking inside the domestic dog is a wild animal; and it's by looking at its wild cousins - from wolves and jackals to rarely seen bush dogs, dholes and dingos - that some of the puzzling things our pet dogs do become clear.
