Where Sleeping Dogs Lie: Cozy Canines and Their Napping Nests

Good night, sweet Prince-and Lady and Duke! Dogs spend between 12 and 16 hours a day snoozing, and their devoted owners are only too happy to accommodate these tuckered pups with upholstered baskets, monogrammed pillows, even designated spots on the down duvet in the master bedroom. Featuring the napping nests of a cross section of sleepy canines, Where Sleeping Dogs Lie shows how our pooches are such creatures of comfort that they find cozy slumber spots in the most unexpected places.

Opening with a foreword by Law & Order star and dog lover Elisabeth Röhm, the book includes sneak peeks at beautiful dreamers of almost every breed catching some Zs on the beach, in the snow, and by the fireplace. On the more practical side, William Berloni, the Humane Society's director of animal behavior (and Broadway's go-to trainer), discusses a dog's need for sleep and security. The book concludes with a useful resource guide to products that will provide your dog with top-flight shut-eye.
