With a camera and a bucket of treats, Shaina Fishman set herself up in a photo studio and watched puppies and their parents at play. The result is a wealth of delightful, irresistibly cute images: dogs laughing, playing, sneezing, yawning, and finally cuddling and going to bed.
The lush, vivid photographs inside this book show a side of puppies that we’re usually not privy too—what they do when it’s just themselves and their parents. The images include dogs from a wealth of breeds, including golden retrievers, pugs, French bulldogs, dalmatians, and more! The dogs are big and small, young and old—some traditionally cute and a handful with a face that “only a mother could love” (and as you’ll see, she does!). And, as a bonus for readers, Fishman has included a model roster in the back of the book that reveals the names and ages of the puppies and their parents, and some of their favorite treats and activities, so readers can get to know them. There’s also a foreword from Shaina revealing her photography process and insider information on getting a finicky pet to smile.
All photos inside are clear, crisp, and inviting—and without exception smile inducing. This is the perfect pick-me-up book: a treat for oneself as well as a gift destined to be cherished and returned to for a good laugh again and again
