Why DO people look like their dogs? Is it shared personality traits, an expression of self-love, or do they grow together over time like old married couples? This book explores the intense bonds we develop with our dogs, which are far from only skin, or even fur, deep. 50 photos by renowned animal photographer Gerrard Gethings present insightful and fun depictions of dogs and their humans, and humorous texts are included in the booklet to provide clues about these 25 people and their furry best friends. The book also includes behind the scenes photos and an interview with the photographer.

You’ll never look at your dog the same way again. Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war! Seven dogs are adopted by families all across the country who do not know their history… “Of one thing I am sure,” Glenn declares. “These dogs are perfectly harmless.” Frank knew it wasn’t true. He would never forget walking into that trailer. He saw it in his mind every time he closed his eyes. He woke up in the middle of the night drenched in sweat, seeing those eyes and those teeth, screaming soundlessly, gasping for breath. “He never saw those dogs. How could anyone make such a stupid a decision, knowing what they did?”
The number one skill for any entrepreneur or business owner is the ability to sell. Why? Because sales = income. Yet, many fail financially not because they do not have great ideas or even good work ethic, but typically because they don’t know how to, refuse to, are afraid to, or don’t think it is important to know how to sell. SalesDogs was written as the very first of the Rich Dad Poor Dad “how-to” Advisory series to teach in a very fun and impactful way how to overcome the fears, the myths and the obstacles to selling your products, services or yourself. It then teaches a simple, time-proven process of selling that will generate great income in most any business. The reader will learn the five most important selling skills to master, how to overcome any objection, manage a territory and much more. The book quickly de-bunks the idea that you have to be an overly aggressive “attack dog” to be successful. It uses the metaphor of “man’s best friend” to say that a great sales person is like a loyal, persistent and lovable canine. It stipulates that there are five different “breeds” or personalities of SalesDogs that can each make a lot of money by playing to its strength. You will learn how to identify, maximize and train to that strength and also how to teach others on your team to do the same. While the book is fun and engaging, it also dives deep into the personal development issues that block a person’s ability to generate income and how to overcome them. The book is perfect for first time salespeople, individuals who are uncomfortable with the notion of “selling”, those who need to train others to sell and those who want to simply get better quicker.
