Product Description
Acclaimed animal photographer Sharon Montrose can't resist artfully capturing lovable dogs on film, and few people could resist bringing home her delightful collection of puppies called Lightweights (almost 40,000 copies in print). Now Montrose focuses on two of America's favorite breeds in Labs: Lightweights Littermates and Dachshunds: Lightweights Littermates.
It's easy to see why labs and dachshunds are so beloved. Whether huddled together with their fellow littermates or weighing in on vintage scales, these fluffy, cuddly, wriggly pups pack a lot of adorableness per pound. Dachshunds showcases the delightful "hot dog," both standard and miniature, in long, smooth, and wire-hair varieties. Labs spotlights America's all-time favorite breed in charming photos featuring all three colors: black, yellow, and chocolate. Alongside each super-cute picture is the puppy's name, age, and weight.
A perfect gift for dog lovers of every kind, and for dachshund and lab owners in particular, these volumes of "aww"-inspiring photographs are a sheer delight.

 Cute and impressive effort! December 22, 2007
I purchased French Bulldogs: Lightweights Littermates and Dachshunds: Lightweights Littermates together, as gifts... I flipped through them prior to sending them off to their final recipient and was pleased to find that the photography and composition was appealing to my tastes. Sharon Montrose's composition skill is what sets these photos out from the rest. I like the bold imagery. And having tried to take pictures of my own pets, I know it's a VERY tough experience to have them pose... they're curious little creatures. My 1-star off of the review is pretty much for repetitiveness; the concept is fresh to begin with, but it gets boring, real fast.
you must get a dachshund after this! April 12, 2006

I have always loved dachshunds and owned a couple. It is a race you can get addicted on: loads of personality and energy and the funny shape - despite which they are really highly mobile and athletic and strong and brave - and cleverness that can baffle humans. I found this book by accident, opened it - of course - and adored it. There are litters of dachshund puppies, mostly 4-5 weeks old, together and then on individual portraits, each of the puppies on a scale, their name and weight written on the page. And that's all. The scales are of different types and puppies come in smooth- and long-haired variations and several colours, all of them are cute and clearly have their own personality already. Just watch these coy, mischievous, sulking, endearing faces and their round little bums, short legs and long ears! You need to get a living dachshund puppy after these pictures - but watch out: I can tell you from personal experience that a 2-month-old dachshund puppy can wear down two young, healthy, highly fit retrievers and still bounce around yapping "What are you lying there for? I just got started!! Get up and play!!!"
SOOOO CUTE!!! February 24, 2006
