Who doesn't love dogs? Answer that question in the negative and find yourself contradicted by the countless dog-lauding quotations compiled here by James Charlton and wackily illustrated by Arnold Roth. Containing quotes from pundits and poets, artists and authors, there's something new and memorable in here for everyone. Charlton categorizes quotes into sections to easily locate a minute message to fit your mood or life circumstance. Hungry? Dog food. Lonely? Love and Loyalty. Aging? Old Dogs. Bad day at work? Barking and Biting. Cat scratched your furniture? Dogs Are Better. Despairing? Love a Dog. Witty and tender, with hundreds of quotes to choose from, this book doggedly compiles all the best words ever written or spoken about man's best friend, all complemented by Roth's artwork. And remember what Mark Twain said: Heaven goes by favor; if it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in.
