The Darkest Evening of the Year Dean Koontz
Bantam, 2007
More than just another mystery
+ Fantastic!
The book touches both elements of spirituality and the unique relationships between dogs and humans. It does this while telling a 4-star tale of intrigue and unexpected relationships. I think if you're open to the first two concepts, this book is off the charts. If not, it's "merely" above ...

Good Dog. Stay. Anna Quindlen
Random House, 2007
Good Dog. Stay
+ I do not like dog books ~ but I love my dog! + A "rea" dog story
Short and oh so sweet!
Yes this is more of an essay than a full blown novel, but the writing is worth every dime. There are so many phrases in the book that I read and re-read. Spend the money and keep this book for revisiting over and over.

The Loved Dog: The Playful, Nonaggressive Way to Teach Your Dog Good Behavior Tamar Geller
Simon Spotlight Entertainment, 2007
The Loved Dog
+ Beginners' dog training (with excessive name dropping) + There is No EASY Button
It was a pleasure finally to find someone with whose gentle, sensible, methods, view point, and philosophy I agree, especially after some rather harsh tactics I have observed by other trainers.

Bad Dogs Have More Fun: Selected Writings on Family, Animals, and Life from The Philadelphia Inquirer John Grogan
Vanguard Press, 2007
Good but not about dogs
This book is a compilation of Grogan's articles from the Philly Inquirer. It is a very enjoyable and quick read but it has little to do with dogs. If you're looking for a book about the bond between humans and their 4-legged friends, consider looking elsewhere. If you're looking for a series of ...

This book is awesome, although it was writen a long time ago it is a great guide on how to go about training a retriever for waterfowling. I read this book after reading "Game Dog" by the same author and they are great complements to one another. Game Dog is more structured by the pups age, but ...

Marley & Me: Life and Love with the World's Worst Dog John Grogan
William Morrow, 2005
AFun Book
+ Very funny but so, so sad
My Daughter gave me this book to read and was it fun. I was reading it on the plane and started laughing out loud as I could relate to some of Marley's antics. It is easy to read and very enjoyable. He may have been a bad boy but loveable and loyal to the very end.
