Book Synopsis

Conoce a Rudy, un perro muy amigable que, en persecución de su pelota, emprenderá un viaje en el tiempo para llevarte a conocer todo sobre su especie, desde sus orígenes hasta la personalidad de las razas y los perros individuales. Pero eso no es todo: el recorrido sobre la evolución y las características de los canes sirve de pretexto para hablar de genética, de la selección natural y la domesticación, y para entender si es la naturaleza genética o la crianza lo que determina los rasgos de comportamiento de cada individuo.

Meet Rudy the friendly dog! While chasing his ball, he embarks on a journey through time that will teach him all about his species, from its origins to the personalities of individual dogs and breeds. But that's not all: this exploration of the evolution and characteristics of dogs is a chance to talk about genetics, from natural selection to domestication, and to understand whether genetics or environment determine everyone's behaviors.
