Praise for Dogs: “This book will appeal to all ages. I know this because it was lying around our house on Thanksgiving Day and everyone wanted a look at it—from college-age to senior citizen. They all oohed and aahed. If you’re a dog lover, or even a dog liker, it’s a keeper.” —The Christian Science Monitor “Featuring profiles of dozens of canines, Dogs is a divine collection of images that spotlights the endearing characteristics of different pooches, elevating them to divine status. Whether it’s a troubled-looking bloodhound or a demure dalmatian, Flach’s subjects establish a direct connection with the viewer, dog-lover or otherwise.” —Flavorwire.com
