Description: Faced with the complications and contradictons of modern society, today's dog becomes a neurotic. At every turn, his prime life forces—the need to eat and sleep—are thwarted. Instinct pushes him towards satisfying this hunger; sleep is necessary to infuse him with sufficient strength to get up and eat several times a day. (The average dog may require about 24 hours rest a day.) But environmental factors prevent him from satisfying these desires. *The canine population of the United States is about 25 million. Out of this, about 25 million can be classified as neurotic—a conservative estimate*
