Summary: "a Sense of Spirit"
Review: "Old Friends" is a wonderful book which I take pleasure in reading over and over. Mark Asher's photos of older dogs are sensitive and beautiful. He has been able to capture the character and essence of each individual dog. At the same time, I feel as if I have met these dogs before because of the enduring sense of intrinsic dog spirit captured by Mark's masterful photographs. This book puts forth it's theme clearly and simply which, in my opinion, enhances the entire visual and sentient experience. It has become my favorite gift to give friends and dog lovers.

Summary: Wonderful tribute to our "old friends"!
Review: "Old Friends" really captures the soul and spirit of elderly dogs. My dog Harry was given to me when he was 8 by my mother just before she passed away. He is 15 now and still going strong! He is my best pal who has been with me through thick and thin. Thanks, Mark, for recognizing how special these old friends are.

Summary: old friends provide long lasting love
Review: As the owner of six elderly dogs, the pictures and captions in "old friends" caused the love I have for them to burn that much brighter. All of my canine companions were rescued from either shelters or abusive situations, several were old when we took them into our home. You CAN teach an old dog "new tricks" . . but one think they don't have to learn is love and loyalty for those who care for them. As seen in "old friends" their faces reflect the devotion and wisdom only gained through time. As a person involved in humane society efforts for the last decade, I would only wish that people were more open to adopting the elderly dogs . . none of us knows how much time we have here on earth. A few last years, well-lived and well-loved, are worth more than words can express . . but these pictures say it so very eloquently. On behalf of all the old "geezer" dogs out there, thank you to Mr. Asher for making them the subject of your camera . . . beauty is not only found in the young, but in the timeless depths of an old dogs eyes. They reflect the love given and it's returned ten-fold.

Summary: Book Review of "old friends"
Review: At first glance I was attracted to the book, Old friends-great dogs on the good life because of Mollie's face on the cover, who so reminds me of my own most beloved senior friend and companion, Duke, who is the love of my life. The book takes on a very caring and personal relationship with our furry four-legged friends and companions who demonstrate unfettered, unconditional love and devotion. Mankind could "learn a lesson" from these wonderful creatures of God, who indeed, possess and exhibit strong emotions and feelings, although unheard because they have no voice. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and perspectives on our "senior pals".

Summary: Old Friends, Best Friends
Review: I am the lucky companion of two great older dogs...Jake is 13 and Cody is 9. I purchased this book for a friend who also lives with old dogs. Once I got the book home and looked at each heartwarming page I loved it so much that I had a hard time giving it away! Mark Asher does an exceptional job of capturing the charm and wisdom of these old friends. There could not be a person who has enjoyed a dog companion at some time in their life who would not be thrilled and touched to be the owner of this book. It is truly a gem.
