I’m currently working on a new 100-page photography book filled with portraits of dogs I’ve met and petted around the world. Curating all my dog photos and putting together this book has been on my mind for a while, so I am looking forward to seeing some of my favorite dogs being included in the new book.

Our family dog, CoCo, was probably my very first encounter with a dog. Her kind, gentle, and maternal way with children helped make me a lifelong dog lover.

Alongside the wide range of breeds, half-breeds, and thoroughbred mutts, what will really add to this new book is the many photographs I discovered in my archive of dogs with their owners.

For legal reasons, I am apparently putting myself at risk if I use those images (of dog owners and their dogs) on the cover, so they’ll be placed inside the book. Dogs I’ve Met & Pet should be ready for ordering in time for the pre-Christmas gift-buying season, along with my other books already available on Amazon.
