They (dogs) have been dommestic for many years and are able and willing and have adjusted to our way of life better then we have to them.
They read our body language far and away better most of us ever will.

They are not wild at all and we need to look at them as family members not wild dogs.

I believe that the point the author of the book I was reading was trying to make was not that these dogs are still wild, but that their instincts don't allow them to comprehend something like "time out," which humans have devised. In any case, like I said, I'm open to trying anything at this point to get her to stop with the biting.
