Divine Dogs

I was shopping with my friend Shelley this afternoon and while browsing in an eclectic little shop we ran across the cutest book of "portraits of divine dogs" with a very clever title - Cat Spelled Backwards Doesn't Spell God.

Book Description
Who trembles for you when you are sad, hangs his head when you are mad, and drools on you as if you were the most beautiful, brilliant, and tremendously fragrant of them all? A cat? No, a dog. With all due apology to the cats out there, the title of this book could not be more accurate. Dogs are the most loyal of friends, the most indiscriminate of companions, and the only ones who will always adore you--even when you're bad. The dogs featured here range from an Irish Wolfhound named Brennain, who opposes war, fleas, and pills, to a pug puppy named Sydney whose only dislike is reading the daily newspaper--so she poops on it instead. Author Jeff Selis's tribute to our slobbery, four-legged friends urges us to follow their lead for awhile and stop thinking about traffic jams and cloudy days and alarm clocks, and instead take time to smell the flowers, the trees... the cute terrier down the street. This book of canine portraits will bring a smile even to those feline types who bitterly wish that T-A-C spelled GOD.
