'Depend upon it,' Sir Walter Scott remarked, 'if people would speak slowly and with emphasis to their dogs they would understand a great deal more than one gives them credit for.' 'Thank God for Dogs', the widowed Sir Edward Elgar once exclaimed in old age. Joyce and Maurice Lindsay echo Elgar's sentiments, having often been grateful, they say, 'for the friendship and loyalty of a dog that neither criticises nor judges'. Their anthology, a collection of tributes, legends, portraits and poems, embraces the wide variety of dogs, doggies, dugs, tykes and hounds as discovered in Scottish life and literature, heraldry and history-all under the headings of Nursery Dogs, Dog Humour. Working Dogs, Domestic Dogs, Bad Dogs, Dog Portraits, Allegorical and Legendary Ghost Dogs, Proverbial and Heraldic Dogs. Literary Dogs, and Dogs
