Book description
Grace Chon's new volume, What Kind of Dog Is That?, feels like stepping into a living laboratory where the science of DNA meets the heartwarming chaos of our furry companions. Already celebrated for her charming book Puppy Styled, Chon brings the same vivid eye and playful spirit to this collection of mixed-breed portraits that will instantly resonate with any dog lover.
The book is split into two engaging parts: a series of beautifully shot, close-up images of dogs whose unique quirks are highlighted-those elongated bodies, the stubbornly floppy ears, the unmistakable stubby legs-and an accompanying "DNA breakdown" that explains where each adorable oddity comes from. The science is presented in a light-hearted way, with clear explanations and fun illustrations that demystify genetic mash-ups without turning the reader into a lab technician.
What sets this book apart is how it celebrates individuality. Rather than pigeonholing dogs into neat breed boxes, Chon shows us that every mixed-breed pup carries an irresistible blend of traits from their ancestors. The narrative feels like a conversation with a friend who knows exactly why their dog's tail wags in a particular rhythm or why they seem to have the uncanny ability to find the warmest spot on the couch.
The photography is impeccable-natural lighting, candid moments that capture genuine personality, and a composition that brings each pup into sharp focus while still showcasing the surrounding environment. The color palette is bright yet earthy, echoing the warmth of canine companionship.
For anyone who has ever wondered about the genetic story behind their dog's unique appearance-or simply wants to indulge in a visual feast of adorable mutts-this book delivers. It's both an educational guide and a heart-warming tribute that reminds us why mixed breeds are truly one-of-a-kind. A must-have addition to any pet lover's shelf, What Kind of Dog Is That? is a delightful blend of science, art, and unconditional love.
