From working dogs and gun dogs to toy dogs and designer dogs, there are 101 adorable animals bounding through the pages to keep readers on their toes. Expertly written by Nicola Jane Swinney, a former newspaper journalist and ex-editor for the equestrian publication Horse & Hound, 101 Dogs features every kind of dog whether that's dinky dachshunds, massive mastiffs, shaggy sheepdogs or slinky salukis. With stunning illustrations throughout by The New Yorker artist Romy Blumel, a ribbon marker, and featuring a guide to over one hundred dog breeds, this is perfect for those looking to purchase a pooch... or just doting dog lovers who want more information. -- Pam Norfolk * Lancaster Guardian *
101 Dogs... describes dogs in words and pictures from Pekingese ('the Peke likes to get his own way') to the Rhodesian Ridgeback ('its origins lie in the ancient dogs of the Hottentots'), with a handy summary of each breed's attributes at the bottom of the page. There are notes on whimsical crossbreeds, including the ubiquitous Cockapoo. -- Melanie McDonagh * The Spectator *
