| “James gave us a wonderful gift. I’m so glad we will all have it. He managed to capture the wonderful connection between people and dogs.” B.N. “We just love the book. The layout and quality of the photos and writing are wonderful. (James) radiates from the pages – his photos portray a brilliant spirit.” L.D. “The book is really lovely. The pictures are gorgeous, and the stories are sweet. Together they make for a wonderful peek into the neighborhood.” K.P. “The book was absolutely superb. The presentation, the photography and your reporting were the best… I will read and reread the book many times; each time with the same pleasure. Dog people are indeed special and their pets are special animals.” H.R. |

James Lehosit captures the charming personalities of the dogs and their people with his lens while the stories are told by dog owners, or the dogs themselves. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. And you will never forget the faces of our best friends. |
