| Summary | "Anecdotes of Dogs" by Edward Jesse is a collection of observations and stories focused on the remarkable traits and behaviors of dogs, written in the mid-19th century. The book explores the unique relationship between humans and dogs, emphasizing themes of loyalty, intelligence, and the emotional depth of canines. It aims to enhance the reader’s understanding of dogs and provoke sympathy for these loyal companions. At the start of the book, the author presents a preface that outlines his motivation for compiling these anecdotes, which stem from a lifetime of fascination with the characteristics and capabilities of dogs. Jesse shares insights on how dogs can exhibit human-like emotions, such as affection and loyalty, and provides examples of their intelligence and instinctive behaviors, like rescuing animals or recognizing their owners even after long separations. He stresses that the common bond between men and dogs can lead to extraordinary acts of loyalty and heroism, setting the tone for the rich anecdotes that follow.
