Danksagung

Danke an Alicia, Love und Katarina, die mich einen Herbst lang in der Schreibblase haben verschwinden sehen und die mit mir Geduld hatten, wenn ich am Mittagstisch Geschichten aus der wunderbaren Welt der Hundeforschung erzählte. Danke auch an meine Frau Katarina für ihre Kommentare zu Sprache und Inhalt. Meine gute Freundin Anna Lundbäck, Frauchen der Dackel Zelda und Remus, hat auch mit Berichtigungen und wertvollen Kommentaren beigetragen. Danke auch an Maria Ahlberg, dass ich ihren wunderschönen Hund Ville, einem Irischen Setter, mit aufs Autorenfoto nehmen durfte. Anders Rådén, mein vielseitiger Kollege und Freund, hat sich selbst übertroffen bei der Illustration des Buches! Ich möchte meinem Verleger Martin Ransgart und der Redakteurin Hanna Jacobsson danken für die gute und angenehme Zusammenarbeit. Und schließlich ein großes Dankeschön an die Grafikerin Eva Lindeberg, die das ansprechende Cover und das schöne Layout des Buches entwickelt hat.
