Bennie — The Big Deal
“They call me Bennie and the Jets - fancy, right? Makes it sound like I’m on a secret mission. Truth is, just being me is pretty important.”
What started as a little experiment for photographer Vicky Champagne has turned into a yearly doggie extravaganza. She snaps sweet portraits of pups, then writes their stories from their own perspective, based on what their families spill about their funny habits and big hearts. Talk about giving dogs the mic they deserve!
Vicky’s favorite part? Getting to know each dog’s unique personality and sharing it in the dog’s own “voice.” It’s like a pup reality show, but in book form!
Sky — Grandma-Speed Boss
“People say I move slow, like a grandma on a Sunday stroll. Honestly? They’re not wrong. I like to take my sweet time.”
Lucy — The Human in Disguise
“People say I’m a dog, but I’m basically like my humans. Yeah, I walk on four legs and can’t talk, but I’m just as cool as Erica and Aiden!”
The real kicker? The amazing community that’s formed around these dog stories. Each book features about 40 tail-waggers, all with their own special charm, but all sharing one thing - the big love for their humans.
Volume 3 is out now, raising funds for the Humane Society (good pups helping other pups). And guess what? Volume 4 is already in the works. Stay tuned!
Milo — The Tiny Drama King
“Mom says I’m dramatic. Nah, I call it being loud and clear. I know what I want, and I’m not shy about saying it. Again. And again.”
Charlee “Burr” — The Determined Pup
“Some say stubborn, I say determined. If my humans take off for a few days, I’m not gonna just forget about it when they’re back. Nope.”
Duckie — The Clumsy Optimist
“I bunny-hop when I run, sometimes my back end wanders off, and slippery floors? Let’s just keep some distance. But that won’t stop me from living my best doggy life!”
Elphie Lee — Glam Detective
“I’m all about the glam and the fluff, but don’t be fooled - I’m also the queen of knowing what’s going on around here.”
Finnegan — The Bed Boss
“When I sleep, I’m claiming half the king-sized bed - Mom and Dad can squish for the rest!”
Fiyero — The Front Seat Snatcher
“I love the front seat next to Mom so much, I hold her hand with my paw the whole trip. Balance? Nah, just buddy vibes.”
Karly — The Glam Walker
“Walking isn’t just moving - it’s an art. I glide, and people stop to watch, even if they don’t know why.”
Mercy — The Splash Queen
“Water is life. Bigger splashes are better splashes. Lakes, faucets, hoses - I’ll chase ‘em all day.”
Finnley — Count the Butt Scratches
“Dinner’s at five, which means the butt scratch negotiations start at 4:30. It’s not optional, just how we roll.”
Honey Bee — The Race Boss
“Mom times races and I tag along. With all the chaos, I’m the one who keeps the team on track. Somebody’s gotta do it!”
Siri — The Security Chief
“I’m the Head of Security at Bath & Brush Co. Every dog gets my full inspection, and most don’t make the cut!”
Rosie — The Party Starter
“Piñatas = joy. I don’t care what’s inside, smashing stuff and wagging tails is reason enough to celebrate!”
Chewy — The Feelings Detective
“I just know when someone’s feeling off. Maybe because I’ve been there before, and that makes me a good friend.”
Christina — The Country Breeze
“Country life let me breathe. One day, my tail just decided to wag. That’s when I knew: I’m home.”
Cinder — The Mountain Climber
“Why stay on the ground when the best views wait up high? I’m all about the peak life.”
Dobby — The Early Bird Boss
“4 a.m. wake-up calls? Yep, that’s me, chin on the bed, starring contest until she wakes. Call it my gentle performance review.”
Quinzee — The Only Kid in Charge
“In this house, I’m not just loved - I’m the sun. Everything revolves around me, and I own it.”
Bandit — The Chill Mediator
“Named Bandit, but I’m the calm in the storm. I find the middle ground when chaos hits.”
Brewster — The Proud Toy King
“After breakfast, it’s showtime with my Toy of the Week. Currently? Rainbow snake skin, and yeah, everyone better admire it.”
