Issues

K9 Magazine's 'first issue was published in August 2001. It featured a Labrador puppy on the cover and carried the strap-line 'Bred to be different'.

Issue two featured a picture of a West Highland Terrier and sported a Union Flag background. It was tagged 'The Crufts issue' as it was distributed at Crufts dog show.

Issue three featured a Jack Russell Terrier on the cover and was dubbed 'The Puppy Special' as it contained a large array of features aimed specifically at puppy owners and people considering purchasing a new dog.

Issue four featured a cat and dog on its cover and was the first (and to date, last) time the publication mixed canine and feline content.

Issue five featured a Yorkshire Terrier on the cover and featured a new design style.

Issue sixsaw the publication carrying a new strapline "The Lifestyle Magazine for Dog Lovers" a motto that the title still carries. This issue carried an interview with glamour model Jordan and celebrity ghost hunter Derek Achorah, from Living TV.

Issue seven saw the magazine's biggest image change to date as, for the first time, it featured a person and dog on the cover. The person was singer/songwriter Anouska de Georgiou along with her Great Dane. This image change reflected the altered direction of the magazine editorially as it took its first steps to becoming a recognised lifestyle title for dog lovers rather than a specialist dog magazine.

Issue eight featured Emmerdale actress Lucy Pargeter and her dog on the cover and carried editorial about relocating with dogs and the controversial subject of theDangerous Dogs Act.

Issue nine contained a lead feature entitled 'The 100 Greatest Dog Training Tips' and carried a cover adorned by Isabella Hervey and her dog Cleo. Editorially, this issue contained articles on booster injections, holidaying with dogs and how to have a dog friendly garden.

Issue ten was a bold orange affair and carried a cover featuring model Charlotte Dutton and her two Bearded Collies.

Issue elevencarried a cover and interview with model and lingerie entrepreneur Caprice. Editorial highlights were an interview with hair care magnate Vidal Sassoon and a focus on the practice of deliberate cross breeding to produce so-called 'designer dogs'.

Issue twelvecame with a metallic fade cover behind an image of actress/model/singer/dancer Carmen Electra.

Issue thirteen was a departure from its trend of boasting celebrity fronted covers. This issue carried a cover of a young woman wearing a straw hat along with a strikingly blue-eyed dog. For extra trivia, the reason this issue did not feature a celebrity was due to the proposed celebrity interview falling through at very late notice with a female singer who has since been featured on another dog publication in another country.
