Product Description

In the wise and winsome tradition of Viking Studio's popular Pug Shots, here is a humorous and affectionate photographic essay on "man's best friend"—with all his—or her—idiosyncrasies. In more than ninety images of forty- eight dogs, these delightful photographs of various breeds and personalities are alphabetized by each dog's name—from Amigo, alert and faithful, to Vinney of the innocent eyes and telltale dirt-covered coat. Juxtaposed are their dictionary-style "doggie definitions," captions as evocative, playful, and telling as the pictures they accompany, as the dogs they characterize. Ever wonder why dogs prefer people food to dog food? Chase a car yet cringe at a vacuum cleaner? Or hate a bath but love a mud puddle? For all dog lovers who will recognize their own pets among these charming canines, Dogtionary is the perfect holiday gift.
