The Best Dog Books for Toddlers & Preschoolers

Published: Jun 9, 2021 Β· Modified: Nov 12, 2022 by Morgan Β· This post may contain affiliate links Β·

Do your kids love dogs? Here are some of my favorite dog-themed books that my kids really love!

I'm sure it's pretty typical for a 2 year old, but my son loves dogs.

It's funny because we have a dog and he doesn't pay her too much attention. He chases her around a littly bit, but mostly ignores her.

But if we are on a walk and see a dog, forget about it. He's so excited, pointing and shouting and describing it as big or little and fluffy or smooth.

So, it's no surprise that he loves dog books, too. Luckily, there is no shortage of children's books about dogs!

If your child is a dog lover, here are some books that they are sure to love!

12 best dog themed books for toddlers

The Best Dog Books for Toddlers & Preschoolers

Do your kids love dogs? Thrill them with these fun dog themed books!

Little Puppy: Finger Puppet Book

My son has always loved these books where you stick your finger in the puppet and he's in all the pages! Great for babies!

Go, Dog GoΒ 

I call this book a Dr Seuss knock off and that's the vibe. It's a bit long but my 2 year old finds the part that goes I DO NOT LIKE YOUR HAT hilarious and repeats it all the time!

RRRalph

This is a book that is asking the dog questions and he answers with different dog noises like ruff bark woof. It's funnier than it sounds.

The Stray Dog

Kids fall in love with a stray dog then come back the next day and the dog catcher is looking for him!

Can I Be Your Dog?

A sweet book about a dog asking everyone to adopt it and everyone - well almost everyone - says no.

Dog's Colorful Day: A Messy Story About Colors and CountingΒ 

An absolute favorite. Good for practicing colors, counting, and my son just loves pointing at all the spots.

One Pup's Up

A good counting book with puppies!

Say Hello to Zorro!

A family adopts a new dog and the older dog is not happy about it!

My Dog Laughs

We have a few of her books and they are really cute illustrations and lots of little scenes on each page.

National Geographic Kids Everything Dogs

I love National Geographic kids books because they are full of fun facts and gorgeous photos!

Tails Are Not for Pulling (Board Book)

Great if you have a pet. Teaches about being calm and respectful to pets!

McDuff Moves In

We have a whole slew of McDuff books and they are very popular but this is the original where McDuff gets adopted!
