'A Wag to the Wise'
or
What dogs can teach us

Joanna Howells with Oscar Fauvarges

60 hilarious cartoons illustrating the wisdom that dogs can teach their human companions. If you thought those old English proverbs and sayings were exclusive to Homo Sapiens, think again. These are things that dogs have known for just as long… though perhaps in a slightly modified form. Inspired, edited and introduced
by Lucie the Golden Retriever.

The perfect gift for all you dog lovers and your dog-mad friends.

"Laugh? I nearly howled."
Cole, Black Labrador, Portland, USA

"Nearly howled? I widdled myself on the sofa."
Max, Staffordshire Terrier (and Cole's best friend), same address, USA

"I know that bitch, Lucie. What a sense of humour! Helped me recover my doghood. Thought I'd had the snip. She showed me different. Were people, surprised? … Hang on, what the hell does that cat think it's doing? … Sorry about that… where were we? Stop shouting, I can't think. So, someone'll have to sweep up the French windows. What's the big deal? You mean, you'd prefer to have cats in the garden? OK, so I'll retire to my basket, but enough with the shouting already. Now where's my 'Wag to the Wise'? Gonna need some comfort reading for a while."
