Dog Years: Faithful Friends, Then Now by Amanda Jones (Chronicle Books, 128 pages) $26.95
Our wonderful companions are often photographed in their prime but Amanda Jones has gone much further with these amazing portraits.
Through her long-standing relationships with a wide range of pet owners she has compiled a stunning collection of images that capture these charming dogs in their youth and their later years.
All of the dogs are beautifully captured in black and white. Each set of photographs is accompanied by comments from the owner, who shares something about their history and their connection.
From pugs to Great Danes, they are all presented with clean backgrounds that allow the focus to always be on the personality that shines through.
