Heartwarming and Sage -- Perfect Gift for Dog Lovers!By Jill TamariI love this book -- a totally charming gift for anyone who loves dogs! This isnt a generic assemblage of quotes about dogs -- its a surprisingly profound; and clearly very carefully curated collection of sayings like "Joy is meant to be shared!" and "Just enjoy the ride!" and "Bask in a sliver of sunshine" that reveal what our canine companions can teach us about gratitude; joy; friendship; living a balanced life and other valuable life lessons. There are also touching stories about dogs and their humans; and truly adorable photos throughout. This book is heartwarming; and at times laugh-out-loud funny. I highly recommend to dog lovers everywhere!16 of 16 people found the following review helpful. Beautiful imagesBy Alicia Ann AllingerI tried a sample of this book first; then I bought it and discovered the astounding photography paired with a majority of the sayings! I dont know what I liked more; the photography or the verse.
