"Dr Gavriele-Gold puts words to the feelings that many pet owners - or partners of pet owners - are too afraid to express, and explains clearly how to acknowledge and cope with them."
John Gray, Ph.D., Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus.

"Dr Joel Gavriele-Gold has come up with a totally new concept in understanding the connection between man and woman and beast. This book is mind-opening in its analysis, and totally practical in its application. The author gives dramatic examples of the psychological roles pets play in our lives - not just as sources of love and compaionship - but what they represent in terms of our own individual family backgrounds. But he doesn't leave you hanging there. He helps couples resolve conflicts over pets to everyone's satisfaction - including the pet's!"
