What an incredible book! It's huge and it contains pictures of dogs from the 1800's and up - oh and some others older than that. Lots of heartfelt quotes about dogs and how they make our lives complete. There are a few pics
that made me uncomfortable so I passed by them quite fast. This is one of the very few books I will read and look at again!

Lihe the title says: 1000 pictures of dogs (give or take).

Or maybe pictures of 1000 dogs. I certainly didn't count them. Some good,some not so good, all enjoyable.

For doglovers.

I don't know how this one got stuck on the 'to-read' list. Dogs, photography, hours of enjoyment for those so inclined!

What a great but weird-ass book. It pretends to be nothing but an excuse to look at pictures of a thousand dogs and that is reason enough for a book, but the short essays that begin each section appear to show a hidden agenda and that is to give a history of dogs in photography. The problem is, that the book soon becomes a history of photography that is merely illustrated by dog photos, then returns to being a history of dogs in photography. MAKE UP YOUR FREALIN' MINDS!

Yes, the text should be better but the photos of dogs to make up for this defect.

Loved the three languages. Great photos. Interesting reading in between.
