A collection of quotations from pundits and poets, artists and authors for dog lovers

There’s something new and memorable in here for everyone. James Charlton categorizes quotes into sections to easily locate a message to fit your mood or life circumstance. Lonely? Love and Loyalty. Aging? Old Dogs. Bad day at work? Barking and Biting. Cat scratched your furniture? Dogs Are Better. Despairing? Love a Dog. Witty and tender, with hundreds of quotes to choose from, this book doggedly compiles all the best words ever written or spoken about man’s best friend, all complemented by cartoonist Arnold Roth’s artwork. And remember what Mark Twain said: “Heaven goes by favor; if it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in.” 

James Charlton is the author and editor of more than thirty books, including The Writer’s Quotation Book, Fighting Words, and How to Speak Baseball with Sally Cook. Jim lives with his wife Barbara and his Great Pyrenees, Cooper, in New York City and Lakeville, Connecticut.
