Since prehistoric times, humans and dogs have shared a unique bond and both have served each other well. Early people discarded food and as a result, wild wolves cast fear and caution aside, following and approaching their two-legged neighbors until they became less wary of each other. As humans hunted, fished, herded, and hauled, they found ways to benefit from the presence and talents of these animals. Over time, both learned to work together, rely on, and like each other.
This book is a fascinating look at the distinct groups that have developed — hunting, herding, working, and companion — as humans selectively bred dogs to bring out desired attributes. Stunning illustrations, maps, and fascinating information combine to explain the origins and characteristics of typical breeds within each grouping.
Little Lions, Bull Baiters & Hunting Hounds is an indispensable book for any dog lover and a wonderful guide for those about to choose their own canine companion.

reviewed Little Lions, Bull Baiters and Hunting Hounds: A History of Dog Breeds on December 11, 2014 Little Lions, Bull Baiters and Hunting Hounds: A History of Dog Breeds
My opinion is biased, since I co-wrote, -illustrated and -designed this book. But it is AWESOME!
Little Lions talks about domestication and follows about 50 breeds through their transformation from working animal to pet, so that kids can see how their individual quirks relate to their original development. The illustrations also show kids what the dogs look like doing their historical job'something that you can't see anywhere else. The dogs are divided by their original use and cover a large variety of countries of origin, job, body type, and personality. There is even a section on mixed breed dogs and picking a dog as a pet.
I can state for a fact that this book came about from a true love of and fascination for the animal, and was driven by years of study and research. It has won numerous awards. You should definitely check it out!
