This is another boonie dog book review from Wolfie and Kansas. "Just Mutts: A Tribute to the Rogues of Dogdom" by Steve Smith and Gene Hill remedies a serious gap in the genre of coffee table dog books. As Mark Derr noted in "Dog's Best Friend", we mutts and boonie dogs are far superior to cognitively impaired, hip-displaced show dogs. At last some noncanine animals of primate derivation have produced a coffee table book featuring us rather than some AKC-recognized breed.
There are many highlights in "Just Mutts". We liked the picture on the left side of page 48, which looks like Kansas, and the narrative description of a trip to the vet, which reminded us of Wolfie's last trip to the chamber or horrors and needles. Our only complaint is that, despite the subtitle, "Just Mutts" seems to feature trainable pets, rather than true rogues and boonie dogs.
