Dogs in Early New Zealand Photographs

Journalist Mike White is also a life-long dog lover. A new book, Dogs in Early New Zealand Photographs has put together some of New Zealand's earliest dog photographs, with an introduction written by Mike White. The photos take us back to the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, with a range of photos from carefully staged studio portraits, to more relaxed photos taken on the family farm. Lynn Freeman speaks to Mike about the enduring love we have for our dogs, and taking their picture.
