Has anyone read this book? It's called, "If Only They Could Speak; Stories about Pets and Their People" by veterinary behaviorist, Nicholas H. Dodman.

Here's a blurb from the publisher's website.

"Did you hear about the dog who always arranged exactly six pieces of kibble in buttonhole depressions in the couch before he could lie down? Or the cat who compulsively hoarded shiny objects? In If Only They Could Speak, Dr. Nicholas H. Dodman, a renowned animal behaviorist, presents thirteen true stories about troubled pets and their distressed owners, revealing that the emotional problems of animals are often as complex, heartrending, and treatable as those of their human counterparts."
