WELCOME TO THE DOG WRITER!


Dear Fellow Dog Lover --

I'm well on my way to setting this site up, but right now it's still in development!

This Web site is dedicated to my writing in all dog-related subjects, from serious research, to dog history, to fun and games.  Please be patient as I create a style that is attractive and easy to navigate, and as I determine what material to post here.  By summer of 2008, this site will be fully functional.

My plans:

  • A listing of all my articles, in their original published form as well as an expanded, online version.
  • An active forum where members can respond to my articles, create discussions, and post their own dog stories.  Sign up for a membership in the forum now and introduce yourself.  By signing up, you'll receive The Dog Writer updates.
  • An extended gallery of dogs and dog people engaged in all kinds of activities together.  The gallery is already up and running: click here.

As I work to get this site fully created over the next couple of months, please check out the magazines where my work appears.  Click on the magazine links to visit their Web sites.  Better yet, head out to your favorite book store and buy a copy!

Also, check out the Web sites of all the great dog-related organizations.

Feel free to e-mail me at mschenker@comcast.net if you have questions or suggestions for the site.

Thank you for visiting,
Matthew Schenker
