Dog Shaming

Our dogs are our best friends. They are always happy to see us. They comfort us in our times of need. They also eat our shoes, stain our carpets, and embarrass us in front of our guests.

Based on the runaway web phenomenon, Dog Shaming features hilarious and adorable photos of petulant pups accompanied by notes detailing their misdeeds: waking sleeping babies, eating vomit, chasing postmen, unplugging alarm clocks, peeing on stuff, etc.

So share in the shaming and laugh through your frustration as Dog Shaming reminds us that unconditional love goes both ways.

Reviews

The greatest Tumblr of canine misbehavior ever . . . like a dog version of Post Secret, except far funnier.

—— Time.com

An awesome trend that has taken the Internet by storm . . . hilarious.

—— funnyordie.com

Sometimes your dog needs to sit back and think about what he's done. There's a blog for that.

—— Huffington Post

When they came to shame the dogs, I said nothing. Now, they are coming to shame the cats. The only time we should act in solidarity with our canine brethren is in the face of such blatant and disrespectful propaganda.

—— Henri, Le Chat Noir

Read it for the personal nuggets... But above all, it's worth reading for its message of hope

—— Mail on Sunday

Charmingly modest... it's appropriate that this most extraordinary of men should remain enigmatic

—— The Times

Stephen Hawking has had to overcome extraordinary obstacles in his life... Where he is most admirable is in his attitude to his disability - on which he is stoicism personified

—— Andrew Holgate, Sunday Times

His clarity, wit and determination are evident, his understatement and good humour moving... We will never really know Hawking. But what we do know - that he achieved extraordinary success against extraordinary adversity - is quite enough.

—— New Scientist

The book coherently appeals to readers who want a snapshot into Hawking's inner life and readers eager to trace the evolution of his thinking.

—— Sunday Business Post (Dublin)

Requires total immersion followed by quiet contemplation… Not only a history of medicine. It is a history dedicated to men […] for whom the war-afflicted body was a life sentence

—— Joanna Bourke , Lancet

He found his best form as a storyteller and interpreter of the dynamic nature of our native woodlands.

—— Ian Edwards , Reforesting Scotland

An informative history of the English relationship with trees

—— Arminta Wallace , Irish Times

Elegant and heartfelt… Part eco-memoir, part monograph, wholly engrossing

—— Daily Telegraph

Fantastic

—— Neil Denny, Little Atoms

A truly compelling book, savage and sparkling by turns

—— Kathryn Hughes , Mail on Sunday

Alan Root’s overflowing life as a dedicated, adventurous film-maker and naturalist is almost the story of wild East Africa itself in those glorious and tragic years surrounding the advent of political independence…a fresh, honest, often moving (and humorous) account, a terrific contribution to the literature

—— Peter Matthiessen

Required reading for anyone who wants to experience the joys and sorrows of conservation in today's Africa

—— Wilbur Smith

Root’s enthralling memoir…is the best true-life adventure story to come out of Africa for years

—— Sunday Telegraph

His is a funny, harrowing, beautifully written love letter to Africa

—— Christopher Hart , Sunday Times

In this captivating memoir [Root] documents his brushes in the bush and his passion for wildlife

—— Big Issue in the North

Oscar-nominated filmmaker Root has written the most extraordinary love letter to Africa – packed with drama and knowledge, tragedy and hope... A completely gripping and important study of this complex and disappearing natural environment

—— Sally Morris , Daily Mail

His is an extraordinary story laced with tragedy

—— Mail on Sunday

[Root's] life story, vividly related here, is crammed with incident and adventure. Curious, creative and fearless, he has diced with death on numerous occasions and been mauled several times in his efforts to capture the daily lives of everything from silver-back gorillas to leopards in the wild on film. A gripping account of a life well lived

—— Good Book Guide
