About the Author
JOHN W. PILLEY is an emeritus professor of psychology at Wofford College. Chaser has been a member of his family since 2004, and he has published the findings from their work in the journals Behavioural Processes and Learning and Motivation. He is an avid whitewater kayaker and windsurfer, and when he isn’t working with Chaser, he goes on daylong outings to water parks and hikes with former Wofford graduates. He and his wife, Sally, live with Chaser in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
