Sub-titled 'Extraordinary Partnership Between Humans and Dogs', the popular TV nature presenter is a lifelong animal lover. Now living on an idyllic farm in Wales, Kate has achieved her dream of surrounding herself with as many varieties as possible, but as with many Brits, the dog has always held a special place in her heart. Here she uses her journey with her sheepdog puppy Teg to frame her examination of this very special relationship and her book is packed full of stories about rescue dogs, guide dogs, service dogs and medical dogs. Kate's journey takes her to the mountains of Afghanistan, a prison in Scotland, and a unique research centre in Austria. Meet ex-Royal Marine Jon with his chocolate Labrador Jester, Marjory with her beloved ex-guide dog Mouse, Colonel Neil Smith and his retired IED detection dog Fire, and many more people whose dogs have changed and saved countless lives by working together with their owners, handlers and human companions. Inspiring, eye-opening and heart warming by the writer and broadcaster specialising in science, wild life and rural affairs. A companion to Humble by Nature code 92848. 308pp, paperback, photos.
