About this ebook
My name is Angie. I am a female Golden Retriever who many of you already know as The Golden Retriever Philosopher Dog. Each chapter marries one classy photo to one of my insightful thoughts. Most of us understand the synergy of well-written lyrics with the right music. This book is the photographic analog of words and music - namely, words and pictures.
You just gotta love ingenious dogs.
