'I am his Highness's dog at Kew;/ Pray tell me, Sir, whose dog are you?' - Alexander Pope

Since prehistory, dogs have served as man's best friend, giving us loyalty, assistance and boundless inspiration.

Dogs offer comfort and amusement to their owners; they provide solace when we're sad, entertaining antics when we're bored and affection every day. To poets in particular, these beloved creatures are the most bountiful muses, as they bark, yip, hunt, fetch, growl and slumber, reflecting back at us our most heartfelt tenderness and often rewarding us with unconditional love we scarcely deserve.

Dog Poems offers a litter of verses in celebration of our most faithful companions by some of the greatest poets of all time.

Renowned poets spanning a great range of eras and styles, all writing in praise of the dog. Including poems from Lord Byron, Pablo Neruda, Rudyard Kipling, Emily Dickinson, Mary Oliver, Thomas Hardy, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Elizabeth Bishop, Alexander Pope and Ogden Nash, there will be something for every taste - so long as you love dogs.
