we luv the dogs
I just really love these books; the photographs in them are great. I will keep ordering them.
Sequel even better than original
Once again, a wonderful collection of canine pictures and witty captions. Even better than the original. Arlene Millman, author of BOOMERANG - A MIRACLE TRILOGY (The tale of a remarkable Boston Terrier).
And I thought the first book was the cutest!
Kim's second book is just as good as the first. I got my money's worth just from the picture on the front cover. That Westy makes me smile everytime I see it.
GREAT Book!
As a "mommy" of 2 of the dogs in the book, I planned on going straight to the picture of our dogs...but as soon as I opened to the first page, that thought totally left my mind. I eventually got there, but not before enjoying all of the many other dogs whose pictures made me laugh and say "AAAWWW"! Since I received the book, I have looked at it at least 20 times and chuckled at every picture! Kim does an AMAZING job of capturing the personality of each and every dog.
A must-have for dog-lovers
The title, "Why We Really Love Dogs," says it all. Photographer Levin's portraits of dogs capture their spirit, intelligence, and loving nature. The book showcases a wide range of dogs and successfully reflects the many moods of these loving creatures.
"Why We Really Love Dogs: is a book you can turn to again and again for a smile and a sigh. Each time I look through at the portraits I notice something I hadn't seen before. It's a great book to give to a friend or fellow dog-lover.
