97 Ways to Make Your Dog Smile

Rating:
Summary: Worth it just for the pictures...
Review: ...and a great gift book. I've done a lot of work with dogs (and am the author of "Lessons to Live By: The Canine Commandments") and think I can really tell when dogs are happy. This book does a beautiful job of capturing happy dogs!

Summary: DOGGONE FUNNY WAYS TO HAVE FUN WITH FIDO
Review: Doggone it! The American Kennel Club says that the only dog "officially" capable of smiling is the Bearded Collie. Don't tell Jenny Langbehn such a catty remark. In this teeny tome, she offers nearly 100 ways to make Doris and Alma smile ... even if "smile" simply means to be happy. And, oh, what fun you and your four-legged friend will have! Some ways are simple: #1 offers "Lower-Ear Noogies," in which your pooch is gentle massaged with your knuckles. Some are questionable, such as #54: "Bring Your Dog to Work Day." Not a good idea if your boss is a cat person or your co-workers are ... aaaaaalllerrgic! But most ways are simply fun ... and funny. We especially love #32: "The Three Little Bears Routine," in which Langbehn suggests you let your dog find you curled up in her bed! Pat Doyle's photos are simply the cat's meow (there are even model bios!), though we wish there were more shots of the greatest dog in the world, the Great Dane. And a harlequin at that. Four paws up!

Summary: I agree...worth it for the pictures alone!
Review: I received this as a gift for Christmas, and not a day has gone by that I haven't picked it up just to look at all those smiling doggie faces. What a joy, and a real spirit lifter. As for my dog, all I have to do is giggle and she gets the BIGGEST grin on her face. There's nothing like a happy, smiling dog.

Summary: Fabulous book!
Review: This is such a cute book! I bought it because I also have a jack russell terrier, like the one on the cover. I opened it to discover the most adorable tricks to use on my dog. I have already tried several and they all work! Buy it today and you'll have the most fun ever with your own dog.

Summary: You've GOT to be KIDDING!
Review: WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY! Info in this book is so elementary that I'm not sure whether I'm more embarrassed or angry to have paid money for it and the publisher & author should be ashamed to accept money for it. If someone has a dog & doesn't know to rub him, play ball with her, talk silly to him, then this book is needed. But, those who care about their dog are already doing what's suggested in this book. Those who don't care won't be interested in any dog books. So, the book must have been written for the very VERY young. There should have been a warning on the cover.
