25 Dog Themed Books To Read With Kids
This post may contain affiliate links. As you will most likely be aware, if you’ve been following the blog for some time, I own two Bichon Dogs called Yoda and Casper. Dogs are amazing lovely pets and make our family complete. My daughter loves our dogs and she is often just as happy to see them when she comes home from school as they are to see her.
With this said, we have been on google looking for a list of Dog themed books to read. We are going to the library to see what they have available and Sylvia is excited. I’m not sure if I will be taking her as I’m a little unwell with my health but John will be taking her and I can’t wait to see what she brings home.
Well, I hope you find this list useful!

Oh good luck and let me know how it goes!
Lots of cute books. My toddlers at church would love these.
Oh cool! It’s always good to have a large variety of books for little ones.
A great selection of books. My granddaughter just loves Clifford!
Clifford the big red dog is a song I can’t get out of my head!
It’s pretty much common knowledge that children and dogs are an unbeatable combination. It’s a double-whammy of cuteness and unconditional love.
ha ha! So true!
So cutee. I love to read these books with my kids.
Thanks Shirley!
These are great for a dog family like ours!
I love Clifford the Big Red Dog. He is one of my favorites. I used to watch the series. Kids would like all these books on your list.
My niece who loves dog will surely love these books. Hope to find them in our local bookstores 🙂

Awww! What an awesome list! My niece (she’s 4) carries around a little stuffed dog everywhere she goes! She’s obsessed with dogs so I know she’ll love these books!

I am getting these books for my grandson. He loves our Shih Tzu and he wants to be the one to hold the leash when we’re out walking. He’s a dog lover, for sure.

Didn’t know there’s so many books about dogs. This is such a great list! We love to borrow children books from the library so this is will be handy. Thanks.
Kids are very fond of cats and dogs and it would be nice to get them books that will help encourage them to read more. This is such a good list of that!
I remember a lot of these from my childhood! I know my son loves a lot of the same books too. Awesome list!
Wow, lots of book recommendation. I will definitely share this to my mommy friends and I might check-out the nearest book store so I can buy some and give it as a git to my godchildren.
Such a great bunch books to read to little ones. My niece loves to read together with us. She would love these books.
This is a nice little guide for kids who love dog-themed books. Easy for parents too, as they don’t need to look for a comprehensive list.
Loved these books. Thanks for sharing
