For eight years, photographer Nell Dickerson traveled across the South taking portraits of dogs committed to the deep-seated tradition of watching the world. Those photographs comprise her latest book, Porch Dogs, which includes sixty pups, from a Basset Hound in Memphis, Tennessee to a Labrador Retriever in Point Clear, Alabama.
Literally the best possible coffee table book. And yes, I love Garden & Gun’s website.
My goal in life at this point is to become a dog.
My friend Neal’s dog is gonna save us all.
Brad is so lucky to have that dog to hug.
This is like my dream in life.
Just one of those days, I guess.
Does anyone want to go for a walk?
There are so many aspects of this picture that I want to have in my life.
I don’t know if I can live in a world where I don’t have a puppy for much longer.
I think the wedding puppy has a crush on me…
Dude, I cannot stop thinking about getting a dog.
This is Yardley. I would like to own him. I would probs change his name to Walter or Norman or Caleb, but whatevs.
That’s all.
The only dog costume I haven’t hated in my life.
And I don’t even like Star Wars.
I gotta testify, come up in the spot lookin' extra fly...
