Ill have to say however that it disappointed me in the quality and subject of the authors photographs. We have Aussies as household companions and in my opinion there are a number of pictures of her dogs with plainly unhappy expressions on their faces. Its not something that gives me pleasure to look at. In addition there are far too many pictures that are blurry/out-of-focus. I have to think this was an attempt at "art" but it just looks like bad photography to me.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
