Author’s Acknowledgments
Even as I sit alone at my desk writing about dogs, I am always aware
of the many people so integral to the process. Thank you to all those
who helped me with this book in so many ways: Tracy Boggier,
Acquisitions Editor, who knew I would love to write about Shih Tzu;
Chad Sievers, Project Editor, and Carrie Burchfield, Copy Editor, for
their bang-up editing jobs; Victor Joris, Technical Editor, Shih Tzu
expert extraordinaire, and a real force in the breed, for his thorough
review of the manuscript; Dominique DeVito, for cheering me on and
helping to keep me on task; and Caroline Coile, for keeping me just
distracted and amused enough to make the days interesting (and for
doing the same thing at the same time).
I also must thank Susan Chaney, Hazel Barrowman, Annie Shirreffs,
Jackie Franza, Annamaria DiGiorgio, Carol Boker, Lisa King, Betty
Liddick, and Tanya Bielski-Braham for giving me years and years
of work that I consider my training ground for knowing all I know
about dogs. Thanks to the Dog Writer’s Association of America for
keeping me tapped into the strange and wonderful community of
people who write about dogs as a career. And finally, as always, to
Ben for his great support of the work I do.
