Introducing
DOGLAND
PASSION, GLORY,
and Lots of SLOBBER at the WESTMINSTER DOG SHOW
DOGLAND is a look inside the Westminster Dog Show, told through the story of a champion Samoyed named Striker and his handler, Laura King. But it’s a lot more than that. It goes back into the history of humans and dogs to explore how we created dogs–and how they, in some ways, created us.
“This book wants to lick your face. Let it.” –Kirkus Reviews
