"I told you this was a dog-friendly town." by Tonia Shatzel, DVM

June 5, 2010

A few days ago we were out with our dog, Shep.  The sun had set and the mood was festive at Rosemary Beach.  There were people everywhere and children laughed and rocketed from face painting to sand art to the balloon animal line.  Shep wagged his tail slowly back and forth and panted happily, taking it all in

 A young couple walked our way, the woman pointing at Shep.  "See," she whispered to the man next to her, "I told you this was a dog-friendly town."  Once they had passed, I couldn't help but grin: you have no idea, my dear.

We started this project with our partners at Design360 as a labor of love, and now we've swept the cutting room floor, taken out the trash, caught up on sleep (sort of), and realized that getting our beautiful book to print was really only the beginning.  Soon we will have 1500 copies of the most beautiful dog photography book 30A has ever seen...and the entire thing is dedicated to you.

On June 25th, approximately 21 days from today, the pre-orders will end.  Once this book comes out and is being sold in Sundog Books, Seacrest Sundries, Scavengers, Yellowfin Ocean Sports and Alaqua Animal Refuge (just to name a few) it will retail for $44.95.

The Dogs of 30A book is approximately 9 x 9 inches of pure excellence.  208 pages of black and white photographs taken in Rosemary Beach, Seaside, Seagrove Beach, Watercolor, Grayton Beach....and the list goes on....printed on thick silky paper and wrapped in a hard cover sporting the 'LUCKY DOG.' imprint .  The final touch is a gorgeous silky paper cover that feels exquisite to touch.  It is truly worth every penny.

 I hope you enjoy this book as much as we enjoyed creating it!  Please take a moment to sign up for our newsletter to stay abreast of future developments at "The Dogs of 30A".

Warmest regards,
