From the bestselling author of The Gospel According to Peanuts comes a guide to the important life lessons that man's best friend can teach us. Dogs do much more than just keep us company and give us love and attention; they are models for how we can live better lives as humans. From humility and obedience to singleness of purpose and unconditional love, Robert Short shows us the lessons we can learn from our remarkable dogs.
Using examples from more than forty classic comic strips, including Peanuts, Blondie, Family Circus, Luann, Mother Goose & Grimm, Fred Basset, and more, along with charming photographs of real dogs, The Gospel According to Dogs is a delightfully entertaining book for dog lovers, comic enthusiasts, and anyone looking for laughter and inspiration.
