Book Description
Loveable canines of all stripes run, leap, bark, and_._._._windsurf?Dog lovers will enjoy this sportsy look at mans best friend, high-octane, grin-inducing enthusiasm in every canine profile. Great mix of mutts and purebreds, rescue-shelter pooches, handicapped canines, and even search-and-rescue heroes. For dog enthusiasts everywhere, this book captures action-loving dogs who know how to have a good time outside-in a way that reminds us of why and how we humans enjoy the outdoors too. Writer Lisa Wogan explores these pooches' stories and how they came to participate in outdoor activities more often associated with their people: climbing, backpacking, skiing, mountain biking, fly fishing, surfing, diving, distance running, and more. From rescued shelter mutts to purebred pups, the unleashed exuberance of these dogs is irresistible.

A real treat for pet lovers February 3, 2008
Illustrated throughout with gorgeous color photography, Unleashed: Climbing Canines, Hiking Hounds, Fishing Fidos, and Other Daring Dogs is a book for dog lovers ages seven to seventy (in human years, that is!). From a floppy-eared German shepherd who accompanies his owner snowshoe hiking or on cross-country ski tours, to a golden retriever who loves windsurfing, to a boulder-climbing pug, the cross-range of passionate active canines is sure to surprise and delight. Every two pages features a brief description of the individual man's (or woman's) best friend and stunning photographic imagery. A real treat for pet lovers and a source of ideas for anyone considering new ways to enjoy physical activity with their pet dogs.
What a lovely, fun book! January 4, 2008
I was very pleasantly surprised by this book. Fun pictures accompanied by short essays about each dog that are very well written, truly entertaining, fun, and inspiring. I am not a dog owner but love the outdoors and animals. I gave it as a Christmas gift to friends who recently adopted a dog. They loved it. This book is a surprising gem!
Great Book December 22, 2007
Lisa Wogen and photographer, Bev Sparks, caputered the essence of why dogs are truely man (and women's) best friend. Of course I am biased being the proud owner of the "cover dog", Wrigley. Thanks for putting out this great book.

Lisa's ability to tell the unique stories about the dogs featured in this book are what makes it a must buy! Her love for man's best friend and the excitement over the human-canine bond are obvious in the way the stories are written. You really feel like you know the dogs after you read about them...and you want to get your dog outside to try some of the activities described in the book!!

Lisa Wogan and her subjects vividly put the "DO" in DOGS. I appreciate her willingness to be part of the movement to help inspire people to become more engaged in their dogs.
