This highly anticipated follow-up to the bestselling book Shake features more than 130 photographs of adorable puppies. This brilliant, brightly colored collection truly captures the squishy cuteness of a puppy—its tousled fur, floppy ears, and endearing expression—in the moment when our tiny, wide-eyed companion is mid-shake.
In addition to its vibrant photographs, Shake Puppies includes a message of support for animal rescue and creating an environment in which all dogs, young or old, can succeed in their new homes. Training tips are included to help dog owners achieve this goal. There is also a roster listing the names and ages of all the dogs featured, as well as a peek into Carli Davidson's studio.My thoughts:
Hm.. my thoughts on this book? Seriously? I don't think I have a coherent thought in my brain with all the cuteness! Okay first... PUPPIES! Second... PUPPIES caught with such cute and humorous expressions while in mid shake. You cannot have a bad day with this book in your hands. Then I learn that the author also adopted a dog during the session. Not a puppy but an elderly dog needing a home. Carli Davidson is also a proponent of rescues. I also love that there is a small section on basic training. I feel that is one of the main reasons that dogs are sent to shelters because they don't know basic manners. It's not the dog's fault, but the human who failed to educate themselves and train their dogs.
I give this 5 puppy breaths! Need a smile? Get this book! It is adorable and like I said it would even make the grinch turn his frown upside down! :D
OMG did you say PUPPIES!!? Where do I sign-up? LOL! I already have two aging fur babies of my own, so I feel like I'm cheating on them whenever I look at these types of books, but the cuteness overload is impossible to resist. What they don't know can't hurt 'em, right? ;)

I bet they would be fine with it as long as you only brought the book home. That is what mine tell me. LOL
DeleteThis would make such an awesome gift for my coworker for the holiday season! Thanks for putting this on my radar.
ReplyDeleteOh this is so adorable!
DeleteWill turn the grinch's frown upside down - now that's some recommendation.
ReplyDelete...and before his heart grew! :D
DeleteI think this book would make my kids beg for a puppy again. They think they need their very own puppy since our dog is a mommy's dog. But I'm definitely a rescue person so chances of getting an actual puppy are slim. This book looks adorable!
ReplyDeleteUm... actually it isn't hard to get a puppy as a rescue. Some of those in the book were rescue dogs looking for a home. ;) Now, don't kill me for saying that.
DeleteOh my gosh the cuteness!

ReplyDeleteawwwww..puppies. I just wanna squeeze them!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's cuteness overload!! And that is so true about the training.
ReplyDeleteOh it looks so cute! I want to take a look at it now!
ReplyDeleteI WANT ALL THE PUPPIES MELISSA!!!!! There is nothing cuter than a puppy:) *runs away to look up pictures of my pups when they were little* Tiny scrunched boxer faces for the win:)
ReplyDeletePUPPIES! That's literally all I took in. LOL.
