      Synopsis

      Old dogs know plenty of tricks for staying young at heart - and here they are! This humorous and loving collection of duotone portraits captures the golden years of humanity' s best friends and most faithful companions. Sage and tender moments are caught on film and are paired with captions that reveal each dog's age and their secrets for a long and happy life, such as Tonto (12): 'Lift and pee, lift and pee, lift and pee on every tree,' and Kelsey (11): 'Never let little dogs with bows in their hair get the best of you.' These are dogs who know how to live life fully and recognize its priorities (like bacon). Old Friends is the perfect gift for dog owners and everyone who hopes to age gracefully in the canine spirit.

      Biography

      Mark J. Asher and his CEO (Canine Executive Officer) Humphrey, an eight-year-old German shepherd/chow mix, run a pet portraiture company in San Francisco.

      January 12, 2005: I spotted this book in a gift shop before Christmas, and fell in love with it. It soon became my favorite gift to give to special friends. An outstanding collection of wonderful faces, it is a bit of philosophy and a glimpse at what old age should really be all about. I only wish there were more of it.

      July 06, 2004: I saw this book while browsing in the local pet supply store and couldn't leave without it. The poignantly beautiful photography of these wonderful old dogs made me both smile and cry (and miss my beloved old canine). The life lessons we humans can learn from the stars in this books are priceless. I only wish it contained more pictures and bits of wisdom from the celebrated seniors.
