What It's Like to Be a Dog: And Other Adventures in Animal Neuroscience by Gregory Berns

Very good read and I would recommend it to anyone that has an interest in animals.
Gregory Berns covers Dogs, Sea Lions, Dolphins and Tasmanian Thylacine (Tiger) as well as others in the informative read. This book looks into the brains structure and inner workings of these animals to really give a sense as to what it's like for them and show that they are not that much different for humans.

The Dog Project and the research that has stemmed from it is a step in the right direction for animal welfare and understanding.

Moderate: Animal cruelty and Animal death
The second to last chapter "Dog Lab" details some animal cruelty and deaths but this is easily skippable and does not take away from the message if not read.
