"... Any dog devotee will put it right on their coffee table the
second they open it." -Christina Vercelletto, CNN Underscored "...a
magnificent collection of photos of animals looking sweet,
innocent, thoughtful, tender and sublime." -Dave Johnson, Forbes
What makes dogs so unique? They are the only species that favour
the company of humans over their own kind. A dog looks at us with a
deep understanding and empathy perhaps greater than our own. In
this charming book of dog photography, Vincent Lagrange records
this treasured intimacy with our four-legged friends. Applying the
techniques of portrait photography, which he learned in his youth
at his father Marc Lagrange's studio, he captures our canine
counterparts in crisp, perfectly illuminated pictures that allow
their own soulful personalities to shine through. Text in English
and German.

THE SUBTITLE OF THIS BOOK OUGHT TO BE 'THE LEGACY OF BUP and Thane'
because, quite simply, if it hadn't been for those two German
Shepherd dogs, this book would never, could never, have been
written. First, because Bup pulled my adoptive mother out of deep,
cold, fast moving irrigation water in the canal when she was three,
thus saving her from drowning, and second because Thane, at the age
of seven months, fought a house-breaker down a flight of stairs and
drove him away one bitter January day when I was living far out and
away from town, all alone on a large cattle ranch with no other
help within call. Without that big pup, I seriously doubt I would
have survived that attack intact, if I had survived it at all. In
the first case, I would have been adopted by someone else and might
never have grown up with German Shepherd dogs, and in the second
case I probably wouldn't have survived at all. _______________
REFLECTIONS FROM THE DOG HOUSE HAS been in the works for over 100
years. The German shepherd dog sprang on to the scene in the late
1890s and early 1900s when a retired German Army Calvery General
made the development of national dog breed his mission. This book
traces the development, and what many have lamented to be, the
decline of this noble breed we call the German shepherd. The book
is divided into six parts containing seventeen (17) chapters.
