Overview
"If Labs were people," writes author Tom Davis, "they'd be surgeons, accountants, attorneys, and CEOs - successful, yes, but a little, um, predictable. "Goldens, in contrast, are right-side, Type B dogs: imaginative, mellow, enemies of routines ... quirky, fun-loving, and full of surprises. You'd want a Labrador to handle your money, but you'd want a Golden to throw your party. A couple of hours into the festivities, it's the one wearing the lampshade." Such apt words from Mr. Davis are perfectly complemented by over 200 remarkable photographs by Dale C. Spartas in this tribute to Golden Retrievers at home, at play, and in the field.Synopsis
