Having spent decades studying how the human brain works, neuroscientist Gregory Berns was uniquely qualified to answer the age-old question: What is my dog thinking?

After his family adopted Callie, a shy, skinny terrier mix, Berns decided that there was only one way to answer that question—use an MRI machine to scan the dog’s brain. Together, Berns and his dog embarked on a remarkable journey to be the first to glimpse the inner workings of the canine brain.

What Berns discovered offers surprising results on how dogs empathize with human emotions, how they love us, and why dogs and humans share one of the most remarkable friendships in the animal kingdom.

How Dogs Love Us offers profound new evidence that dogs should be treated as we would treat our best human friends: with love, respect, and appreciation for their social and emotional intelligence.
