With a camera and a bucket of treats, Shaina Fishman set herself up in a photo studio and watched puppies and their parents at play. The result is a wealth of delightful, irresistibly cute images: dogs laughing, playing, sneezing, yawning, and finally cuddling and going to bed.

The lush, vivid photographs show a side of puppies that we’re usually not privy too—what they do when there's no humans around. The images include dogs from a wealth of breeds, including golden retrievers, pugs, French bulldogs, dalmatians, and more! The dogs are big and small, young and old—some traditionally cute and a handful with a face that “only a mother could love” (and as you’ll see, she does!). And as a bonus, a model roster reveals the names and ages of the dogs, and some of their favorite treats and activities, so readers can get to know them. There’s also a foreword from Shaina revealing her photography process and insider information on getting a finicky pet to smile.

All photos inside are clear, crisp, and inviting—and without exception smile inducing. This is the perfect pick-me-up book: a treat for oneself as well as a gift destined to be cherished and returned to again and again for a good laugh.
