Synopsis

Personal ads: Who can resist reading them-even if you're "attached"?Dogs: Who doesn't love them (okay, besides cats and mail carriers)?Personal ads for dogs: The most inspired combination since peanut butter and jelly!Fixed Mix Seeks Same: The First Book of Dog Personal Ads is a one-of-a-kind collection of hilarious canine snapshots and personal ads that will leave readers howling. What better treasure or gift for the dog lover, a friend who's making the singles rounds, or anyone who finds witty writing irresistible? Some ads are silly, others sly, and a few a tad naughty. The pooch portraits are grounded in reality, with a satiric or absurd twist-just like the most intriguing people personals.Consider the terrier in a bikini whose ad reads: "Moondoggie Where Are You? Sun-worshiping beach babe seeks Big Kahuna who loves to soak up the rays and knows when it's time to roll over. Sunsets, bonfires, gnarly waves, and corn dogs float my boat. Man thongs, hairy backs, and muscle heads move on. Let's duck under the beach umbrella and dig our own love castle. No sk8ers please-get a life."A hysterically entertaining look at man's best (date-minded) friend.
