Inhaltsangabe

Dogs with Jobs is a non-fiction picture book celebrating working dogs – from therapy and companion, to tracking and herding, and search-and-rescue support. They're here to save the day in so many remarkable ways!

Give a bark for the dogs who do. Raise a paw for dogs with professions. Wag your tail for dogs who are trained to help humans out.

For hundreds of years, dogs with jobs have helped us in so many ways. Dogs have dedication, extraordinary noses, extra-special skills to understand commands, the ability to pick up smells and sounds that humans can't, and the power to comfort and communicate with the humans they love. Dogs can do almost anything we ask them to.
