We are a family of dog lovers. We had dogs in my house growing up, and the dogs in our family are some of my daughter’s best friends. So we recognize the power of friendship between dogs and their owners. Dogs can provide comfort and love at the times that we need it most, and we can do the same for them. We were thrilled to have the opportunity to check out these sweet dog books for kids, and pair them with activities that celebrate the kindness of dogs, and the kindness we can show to them.
