Product Description

For dog lovers, here is a heart-tugging collection of duotones that celebrates the beauty and spirit of humankind's most devoted companion. Focusing her lens on purebred pets, photographer Deborah Samuel has captured the everchanging moods and eccentricities of 80 different breeds. Through her closely observed photographs we come to understand the vitality of an Irish Setter, the roguish humour of a Jack Russell, the diffident elegance of a Greyhound. Ultimately, each irresistible photograph reveals not just the character of the breed, but the heart and soul of a beloved pet. Samuel's personal anecdotes, collected at the end of the book, reveal the often hilarious behind-the-scenes stories of each studio session. Page after stunning page, from Afghan to Yorkshire Terrier, the photographs in this canine collection are tender reminders of why we love our dogs.
