Not the vanilla stuff like this book. Perhaps it's because I'm involved in dog rescue, and some of our stories are either terribly happy, or terribly sad. I looked forward to reading this book, but ended up being disappointed. The writers were very skilled at their craft, but I've certainly read much more meaningful, true dog stories.
I have to concur. Bought it as a gift for my wife - a dog lover. She read a couple of stories and lost interest immediately - said some stories are pretty lame.
i didn't read it, but just the few exerpts i did, looked funny and heartwarming. bought this for a single gal, with a dog, for christmas.
You will laugh and cry, but you will be greatly moved by these wonderful stories. My sister lost her beloved Bouvier in a tragic accident. A friend gave her this book to ease her devastation, and she has since shared it with many others.
The stories are very different. I liked this book more than I expected too. If you love dogs like I do you can always appreciate a good dog story, told well.well. Like an complation some stories are better than others, and some are just funny. It's stories of dogs by the women that loved them. There are women of all kinds, dogs of all kinds, and each woman has a different voice that makes the book easy to read.
