Our fascination with dogs stretches way back and we have both observed and cohabited with them for as long as records can recall. In honour of what they mean to us, what they give and what they do, men and women the globe over have immortalised their experiences in ink. Although there are many brilliant examples, below are just a few of those readily available on the internet.
