Product Description Perhaps one of the reasons we are so devoted to our dogs is that they help us become who we're supposed to be.
"How easy to get lost in a dog's eyes!" write the Monks of New Skete in this new book celebrating our lives with our dogs. Far from getting lost, though, you might very well find what really matters most to you as you read through these soul-stirring meditations and enjoy the heartwarming photographs of dogs doing what they do best--being themselves.
Customer Reviews: Dogs & DevotionMarch 8, 2010 Sacramento Book Review(Sacramento, CA) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
For a truly inspirational and beautiful look into the bond we share with our beloved canine companions, //Dogs & Devotion// is an outstanding tribute. The Monks of New Skete offer in their writings a way to look at our four-legged friends and by taking a moment to better understand of how they live so that we, too, may find some wisdom in treating ourselves a little better.
This book is filled with lovely photographs and is full of insight for taking life a little less seriously, making the little things in life a reward worth celebrating and, as we all know, learning to give of yourself unconditionally.
The authors believe that dogs have a lot to teach us about how to live, perhaps most importantly, the quality of devotion. Dogs are masters of the art of devotion, not only in their loyalty to us, but also in the way they approach every aspect of life. This book is an absolute must for the dog lover and, who knows, if it is out on the coffee table, it might inspire a few people to have their first relationship with a new furry friend. //Dogs & Devotion: A Celebration of the Bond Between Dogs and Their People// would make an excellent gift and a great addition to your library.

A Book Every Dog Lover Should HaveJanuary 7, 2010 J. Polito(boston, ma) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a small book, with wonderful pictures of all kinds of dogs and equally wonderful narratives on various aspects of our relationships with our dogs. The authors are the Monks of New Skete, who are known for breeding German Shepherds and for their books on dogs. This book is not a dog training book or a book just about German shepherds. I got it after losing my beloved old canine friend and it brought me lots of comfort.

This book is a great study on how dogs help make us more human. I've always known dogs to be great spiritual teachers. I've given the book to several dog loving friends and all have been moved by the monk's wise words. Thanks be to God and dog.
Devoted Dogs & what they teach usJune 4, 2010 Stephen Lerch(Elkton, MD United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is superbly written. It is very easy to read but the thoughts put across can be pretty profound. The Monks of New Skete touch on a lot of the reasons why people choose to become caregivers for dogs; many of which people never even realize consciously.
The book is also rather short, but profound and touching. The text complements the stunning photographs of dogs in various positions and actions.
The only complaint I would level at the book is that for the $16.99 MSRP I had hoped for perhaps not all, but some, full color photos. The only full color photos are on the cover. All of the other photos in the book are black and white.
If you know a dog lover, do them a favor and surprise them with this book. They will enjoy it almost with a doubt.
