We think that we understand why dog pictorials are so popular: Mere words cannot capture the essence of our pets. But one language does come close. Many Yiddish words seem cosmically attuned to our pooches' unique nature. For example, who among us hasn't encountered a languorous pet accurately described as a schlep? Or fallen under the spell of a hapless pup we're tempted to call our putz? Yiddish for Dogs will not only help you make your dog multilingual; its fetchingly humorous photographs and captions will entertain you even when Fido has better things to do.
