On Sunday, September 17, we inaugurated our Utne Radio programming with the webcast of a live interview with famed British biologist and Utne Visionary Dr. Rupert Sheldrake, best-selling author of Dogs That Know When Their Owners Are Coming Home (2000, Random House), produced by BigMindMedia.
Dr. Rupert Sheldrake is a radical British biologist/philosopher, and author of Dogs That Know When Their Owners Are Coming Home and Seven Experiments That Could Change the World. He is one of the 120 Utne Visionaries, best known for his ground-breaking theory of Morphic Resonance.

Dogs That Know When Their Owners Are Coming Home: And Other Unexplained Powers of Animals
Many pet owners will swear that their dog or cat or other animal has exhibited some kind of behavior they just can”t explain. How does a dog know when its owner is returning home at an unexpected time? How do cats know when it is time to go to the vet, even before the cat carrier comes out? How do horses find their way back to the stable over completely unfamiliar terrain? And how can some pets predict that their owners are about to have an epileptic fit? Rupert Sheldrake compellingly demonstrates that we and our pets are social animals linked together by invisible bonds connecting animals to each other, to their owners, and to their homes. Dogs That Know When Their Owners Are Coming Home not only provides fascinating insight into animal, and human, behavior, but also teaches us to question the boundaries of conventional scientific thought.
