I like a dog at my feet when I read,

whatever his size or whatever his breed.

A dog now and then that will nuzzle my hand

As though I were the greatest of men in the land,

And trying to tell me it's pleasant to be

On such intimate terms with a fellow like me.

'The Dog' by Edgar A. Guest

The relationship between us humans and our dogs has inspired many of the world's greatest poets. Sometimes funny, sometimes moving, the poems in this beautifully illustrated anthology are a true celebration of the faithful, affectionate, delightful dog. The perfect gift for dog lovers.
