5.0 out of 5 stars Amusing, provocative, sui generis - a must buy, September 11, 2006

By	Donald B. Fouser "Heavy Reader" (Ipswich, MA. USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A carefully planned and executed picture book with amusing text using "dogs" as man in his (or their) endeavors. Takes you all over LA and Europe with one picture layout after another perfect in its conception and execution. The payoff is ironic. A hoot. A laugh a page, or many if you will. I have given copies to everyone I know who is savvy enough to enjoy it. I am over 13 and of sane mind and sound body. Don Fouser

4.0 out of 5 stars Great photos!, April 2, 2009

By	P. Fisher "Weim Lover" (Kansas City, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this because I am a Weimaraner lover and collector. The photos were fantastic. The story lacked. For the price I got it for, it was well worth it for the photos alone!

5.0 out of 5 stars More fun than a dogpark full of weimanarers, June 17, 2007

By	B. Fallon "fussy reader" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Both verbally and visually, Finley's book is a delight, with sly fun hiding in both the pictures and text. No ordinary cutesy pet gift book, this one is actually worth the price of admission. The story is clever and witty and the photos will have you laughing out loud. I gave copies to friends and even the non-pet people thought it was a hoot. And some of them owned cats! And I'd tell you about the neat twist at the end, but you should find out for yourself.
