ABOUT THIS BOOK (taken from the website)
A winsome collection of 50 full-color, all-breed canine portraits, each posed with a favorite play toy and accompanied by an affectionate anecdote.
Dirty Wow Wow was ranked #3 on Entertainment Weekly's "Ten Things We Love" List
The creators of the popular book DIRTY WOW WOW present this brand new album, featuring beloved family pets and the raggedy objects of their affection. Big dogs, small dogs, mixed breeds, purebreds, puppies, and seniors tug, chase, chew, guard, nuzzle, sleep on, and play with their shredded teddies, blankies, and chewies. Each dog portrayed has formed a bond with a self-selected favorite, and many of them remain loyal to just one toy. Among the toys that have survived the perils of puppyhood, many continue to give comfort and joy to their aging pooches. Every lovingly photographed image of our best friends with their best friends will resonate with dog lovers and the readers who love them. Reviews"Loving, whimsical tribute to dogs and their favorite chew toys."—New York Daily News
" Dirty Bow Wow: A Tribute to Dogs and the Objects of Their Affection is a book that features dogs of all shapes and sizes with their favorite doggie toys. During photo shoots, the authors made sure rescue dogs were included in the book, such as a Pit Bull named Malibu who’s favorite toy is a stuffed pink piggy. Shelter dogs spend days locked in a confined space, and toys can help brighten a lonely dog’s day and teach them socialization skills that make them more adoptable.Your help is needed! The Dirty Bow Wow Dog Toy Drive starts May 2009 at bookstores across the country. It’s your chance to help shelter dogs find the toy of their dreams, and hopefully a permanent, loving home. Below is a list of retailers who are collecting dog toy donations or hosting events. Drop off a new dog toy at the location nearest you, and aid a dog in need today! " - quote from the website

MY REVIEW
This is a wonderful book for Dog lovers. The photography is fabulous and each picture really shows the personality of the dog. I really appreciated that the book was not limited to purebred dogs only- there were photos of adorable dogs found in shelters or rescued in some way too. My kids thought it was fun to look at the pictures and see what kind of toy each dog liked to play with. Dirty Bow Wow would make an excellent coffee table book or a gift for those dog-people in your life.
Thanks to the Family Review Network for making this review & giveaway possible!

My dog Kouga loves his grunting caveman toy. I can totally relate to this book. It would be for me, but I would pass it on to a member of my dog rescue group when I finished reading it.
I would LOVE this book for me and for Tom - maybe it would help slow his desire for a second dog for a while!
and I follow your blog of course Tara! How did the appointments go?
