Year of the Dogs

From photographing lions, tigers, and bears for National Geographic, Vincent Musi took on a new challenge in 2017: capturing the spirit of dogs. Over the course of a year, Musi photographed a wide variety of dogs—from a farting bulldog to a Labrador that loves opera—using the same expert lighting and techniques that made his wildlife photography legendary.

The result is The Year of the Dogs, a stunning collection of over 100 portraits, including close-ups, profiles, and full-body shots, accompanied by narratives that highlight each dog’s unique personality. This elegant, beautifully packaged book makes a perfect gift for dog lovers, photography enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates humor, charm, and artistry in animal portraiture.
