Book Reviews of Dirty Bow Wow: A Tribute to Dogs and the Objects of Their Affection
Book Review: Man's best friend never looked more adorable
Summary: 5 Stars
"Dirty Bow Wow: A Tribute to Dogs and the Objects of Their Affection" showcases 52 canine pets posed with their beloved play toys. Authors Cheryl and Jeffery Katz compiled this delightful book of "dirty bow wows" and dogs. Each page spread features an adorable portrait by photographers Hornick/Rivlin who performed miracles in capturing expression-filled dogs with their precious toys. A short, often humorous blurb accompanies each photo and brings insight to each dog's life. All sorts of dogs, the adopted strays and rescue dogs to the most highly pampered pedigrees, are gathered inside the glossy pages. Man's best friend has never looked prouder or more adorable.
A quick and enjoyable coffee-table worthy read, all dog lovers will find something to love when perusing "Dirty Bow Wow." In my household, lots of books fall into my hands and my hands alone. However, this book managed to become a family favorite. My preschool-aged daughter immediately fell for the Toy Poodle named Annie Goodman modeling her beloved chic Pink Purse toy. My husband, the discerning reader (so discerning he hardly ever picks up a book) read "Dirty Bow Wow" cover to cover and remarked on a number of dogs. Puggle Lucy nose-to-nose with her stuffed, earless Doggie won him over. She's pictured in the toy drive photo below. As a book reviewer, I am probably one of the only people who read the title page. I noticed a rather hidden photo of a Bernese Mountain Dog named Hogan displayed opposite on the frontispiece. Somehow this shy Hogan and his Rabbit did not make mention on the contents page so he wins my vote and makes mention here. Think you could find a favorite? Bet you could.
Summary of Dirty Bow Wow: A Tribute to Dogs and the Objects of Their Affection
A winsome collection of 50 full-color, all-breed canine portraits, each posed with a favorite play toy and accompanied by an affectionate anecdote.Dirty Wow Wow was ranked #3 on Entertainment Weekly's "Ten Things We Love" List
The creators of the popular book DIRTY WOW WOW present this brand new album, featuring beloved family pets and the raggedy objects of their affection. Big dogs, small dogs, mixed breeds, purebreds, puppies, and seniors tug, chase, chew, guard, nuzzle, sleep on, and play with their shredded teddies, blankies, and chewies. Each dog portrayed has formed a bond with a self-selected favorite, and many of them remain loyal to just one toy. Among the toys that have survived the perils of puppyhood, many continue to give comfort and joy to their aging pooches. Every lovingly photographed image of our best friends with their best friends will resonate with dog lovers and the readers who love them.
