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 Dogs 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.

The Monks of New Skete have done it again. This beautiful book is a great gift for anyone who is a dog lover. I loved the photos of the beautiful dogs and their soulful adoring eyes. The text is beautiful and If possible I thought more of our best friend, the dog, than I ever did before.Their joy at playing especially with their owners, is contagious and comes at you right off the page. Thanks to the Monks for this wonderful, inspirational book.

I love this book. I have read their other books "The Art of Raising a Puppy" and "How to be your Dogs Best Friend" and "I & Dog" is a great compliment to them. It's perfect to have on your coffee table for guests, or just to pick up for reflection. The pictures are wonderful.

What a Beautiful Book. This is a Feel good and comforting book to read.
Upon getting it I got in my bed to look through it and my Faithful and loving Best Friend My German Shepherd crawled up beside me and layed there and fell asleep as I looked through the book, Well I did not put it down until I was finished with it. It is book that makes you want to be and do better than what you are now. I now will order more of the Monks of New Skete Books, I was very Impressed.
Can't go wrong with these monksJuly 27, 2005 Cassie Abbott(WA, USA) 13 out of 14 found this review helpful
It seems the Monks of New Skete can do no wrong when it comes to writing great books. This book is of the inspirational variety, and contains some very thought provoking statements. I found myself thinking "duh; that is 100% true! Why didn't I think of it like that?" The photography is excellent also. Some very true words of wisdom can be found in the pages of I & Dog.
wonderful...June 29, 2004 Thomas Wilk(Livonia, MI USA) 15 out of 17 found this review helpful
A great gift for any dog lover. While not hefty in size or word count, this book speaks volumes of truth about dogs and their relationship with people. The photographs, of the monks' german shepherd dogs and other, almost random canines, are both amazing and amusing.
