Very nice

I purchased and gave this book for an intelligent dog lover, who has since then enjoyed this book very much. Notably, the book features a variety of interesting information that delightfully ranges in tone (ex: the book is both serious and humorous). Additionally, the inside of the book is reasonably attractive - a lot of information (hundreds of pages), but it is organized and put on full color pages with pictures - so no mundane black and white format.

Great book!

What a wonderful resource! Lots of good info, plus so funny in some parts that I annoyed my husband by contintually reading parts out loud. Bought it for friends as a "puppy shower" book (those of us whose kids are four-legged deserve showers, too!). I highly recommend it!

Have fun but beware!

Wow! Over 350 pages of dog-lists, covering almost anything related to dogs. Tons of information for a few bucks.
However, this is not a book written by experts, but a scissors and paste production. It's a mixed bag of facts, received opinions and sometimes plain myths (i.e. the history of breeds). Consequently I find it difficult to believe anything at all. Can we trust, for example, the recommendation of the boxer as a dog especially suited to live in an apartment?
So keep in mind that this book is not a piece of dog-science, but supposed to be fun. If you like trivia as well as dogs you may add this title to your shelf of dog books. I would not recommend it as an introduction to the canine world.

The perfect Christmas gift for a dog-lover...

I got this for my Aunt (who's a veterinarian) for Christmas and she LOVED it. It's a huge book, crammed full of random facts and trivia and it's affordable. It's a solid buy for any dog-lover...

Fun book!!!

This is an awesome book. Lots of cool info. Will keep any dog lover entertained for hours.

For some people, the world spins on a slightly different axis, and life
is often dictated by a cold nose nudging for a predawn outing, a
stray dog hair in your coffee, and that daily race to get home after a long
day's work and be greeted by slobbery kisses.

Planet Dog is a jam-packed book of more than three-hundred lists
about raising, loving, and living in the world with man's best friend.
Combining the practical, the informative, and the entertaining, this
unique encyclopedic treatment addresses not only the care of dogs
but also their culture, their competitions, their breeding and behavioral
characteristics?even dog people themselves?all in a feisty and easily
accessible guide.
