The Ultimate Dog Lover: The Best Experts' Advice for a ...

Something Tells Me Pamela Didn't Read This Book:
Hey - I wrote a story included in this book - it really is awesome (the book... and my story)- I actually teared up a couple of times while reading it (the book, not my story) - even bought a few copies for friends, which looking at the sales ranking here, prolly accounted for a doubling of sales. Woohoo! P.S. something tells me Pamela won't be gettin' a holiday card from Gina. Rock On, (...)

Heartwarming for the Dog Lover:
The Ultimate Dog Lover is a treasure of stories, advice and photographs for anyone who loves dogs. It is a book to savor and to read a couple stories at a time, as each is memorable. One story, "Call of the Wild," was so unbelievably amazing that it stretches what I consider credible--but I do believe it to be true. (It involves a pack of wolves...) One warning however: do not read this in public unless you don't mind having others' watch you weep! I read several chapters at Barnes + Noble and gave up, as I kept wiping tears away. Most of the tears are not because the stories are necessarily sad (although some are)they are just emotional and very touching stores. For those of us who love dogs, this book touches the soul. The photographs are wonderful. The final section of the book is called Must know information and contains useful information for dog owners. Give this book to yourself and other dog lovers.

Sure to please the dog lover in your life...especially if it's you:
This wonderful book is a collection of articles on dogs - fun stories about dogs, loving stories about dogs, stories about helpful dogs, and also many articles full of helpful hints on what to do for that best friend of yours that will stick with you through thick and thin. And along the way, the reader is treated to many beautiful color pictures of dogs. This is a great book, a great gift idea that is sure to please the dog lover in your life...especially if it's you. I really enjoyed this wonderful book and don't hesitate to recommend it.

A must have for all dog lovers:
Reviewed by Irene Watson for Reader Views (12/08) "The Ultimate Dog Lover" - that's me. How can anyone not look into the eyes of a dog, any dog, and discover the soul that resides within? And within that soul, there is a story. That's exactly what the authors are sharing - stories about dogs and their humans. Note: dogs and "their" humans. Each story, written by a contributor, is heart-felt and allows the reader to experience inspiration, joy, and tears. But, there is more to this book. There are color photos of dogs as well as what authors call "must-know info." There they inform the reader on how to make travel with a dog easier, developing a bond through trick training, reducing shedding, and taking photos. This is two books in one; a book that shares experiences and a book that shares how to have a good experience. I commend the authors on taking the time and making an effort to inspire us through their work in "The Ultimate Dog Lover."
