Christine Miele loves all dogs (even though she loves Golden Retrievers a little more than the rest). Christine is president of the Golden Retriever Club of America and she shares her home with her husband and five beautiful Goldens: Piper, Buck, Simon, Icey, and Dixie. Chris is an expert in the exciting sport of dog agility, and is both a competitor, judge and author. She is also an AKC judge for both Golden Retrievers and dog agility.

Mary Tiegreen is the creator, designer and art director of the 1001 series. Her two beautiful Golden Retrievers, Maggie and Scottie, appear numerous times throughout this book (what a surprise). In addition to dogs, Mary loves Ireland, Golf, America, Horses, and Google videos!
