Product Description
The Monks of New Skete have been breeding, raising, and training German Shepherds for more than thirty years at their Cambridge, New York, monastery. Their perennial bestseller, How to Be Your Dog’s Best Friend, is considered a classic in the dog-training field. First published in 1978, and completely revised and updated in 2002, the book has brought the Monks international acclaim for their successful mixture of discipline and love. Their second book, The Art of Raising a Puppy, was also a bestseller. Together, the two titles have sold close to one million copies.

Now, the Monks of New Skete reflect on the amazing bond that dogs and their owners share in the lavishly illustrated gift book, I & DOG. Celebrating this special relationship through words and images, the Monks offer a simple message: we could do worse than to learn from dogs – about ourselves, about our spirituality, and about God.

Taking readers on an eloquent exploration of the profound attachment between human and dog, this 80-page hardcover book features inspirational passages from the Monks of New Skete combined with more than fifty spectacular black and white and color images taken by talented photographers John Sann and Monique Stauder. Distilling all the wisdom and insight that the Monks have gained over the years living with and training these special creatures, this beautiful book pays homage to our extraordinary connection with our dogs.

In keeping with their philosophy, the Monks stress that love grows through respect, understanding and nurturing, and that it is humans’ responsibility to listen and learn from our canine partners.

5 out of 5 stars Great Gift   July 12, 2010
Jacquie
Wonderful volume for any animal lover, but especially those on your gift list who are dog lovers/owners. I recommned all the "New Skete" books unreservedly.


4 out of 5 stars I and Dog: Photos and Reflections worthy of Meditation   November 2, 2009
Michael Witt (Missouri USA)
For anyone who has shared a life with a dog, this book is a must read. The Photos are beautiful and display that special relationship which is possible between dogs and people. The reflections, especially the last one about hope, are cause for quiet meditation. All the better if your dog is near! This is a great book to share with fellow-dog lovers as a present.
Rev. Michael John Witt

5 out of 5 stars A beautiful gift   March 2, 2009
Mayer Fan (CA)
I originally bought this book as a gift for a friend. After leafing through it, I was so taken by the stunning photos and lyrical text that I kept the book for myself! Phrases like "Dogs are subjects in the kingdom of now..." and "Dogs mirror us back to ourselves in unmistakable ways that, if we are open, foster true understanding and change." totally captured me and are reminders why I'm going to have to eventually get another dog after cancer took mine from me. The book captures the essence of the human/dog relationship.

The Monks of New Skete have 3 books that every dog owner should read. This is their third.
