When speech-language pathologist Christina Hunger wondered if dogs can understand words we say to them, shouldn't they be able to say words to us? Christina decided to put her theory to the test with Stella and started using a paw-sized button programmed with her voice to say the word "outside" when clicked, whenever she took Stella out of the house. Part memoir and part how-to guide, a chronicle of the journey Christina and Stella have taken together and the techniques Christina used to teach Stella - broken down into simple stages and actionable steps any dog owner can use to start communicating with their pets.
