Customer Reviews

A must read for dog lovers and would-be dog owners...

Bad Dog is a brilliant collection of `tails' about dogs who have gotten themselves and their owners into some very odd situations. Almost every breed is represented in the collection, which gives the dog's name, breed, and amount of damage caused. Most have a picture of the dog, and the stories themselves are only about a page long, and written from the point of view of the dog. The book is a great quick read. People who already own dogs will laugh at the stories and feel relived that (hopefully) their dog isn't quite THIS bad, and would be owners should read this book before they get a dog so they can see some of the `fun' and creative things a dog can accomplish given time. The stories range from the horrific to the embarrassing, to the utterly destructive. One dog cost his master $32,000 in plumbing repairs, for example. OUCH Bad Dog will have both you and your dog howling with laughter. HIGHLY recommended.

A Dog's Perspective

Hi. Jake the Golden Retriever reporting in on this book. My human received this book in the mail recently. She plopped herself on the couch and spent the entire evening reading it; at one point she was laughing so hard she had to wipe TEARS out of her eyes. Sheesh. Humans! She really enjoyed the book, and I heard her say she is buying a LOT of them for gifts.

A Must-Have Book for Dog Lovers

This book will make you appreciate your dog more. Either by realizing how good your dog really is, or that you're not alone in the vast asylum of people who are owned by their dogs. A perfect gift for the dog lovers in your life. A great read filled with humorous short stories.

Truly Inspiring!

A super book; a must-read for any dog owner (or aspiring dog owner!) An hysterical collection of canine misdeeds, as related from the dogs' perspectives. I can't wait for the next volume!

You name it! They've done it.

I read this book from cover to cover and have purchased a total of 4 books for gifts to people I know who THINK they have bad dogs. These dogs are outstanding in the field of BADNESS. If you don't laugh out loud at least once while reading the book you don't know dogs at all. These stories are written by people who truly love their dogs......in spite of it all! My dog Patches is in the book, but she can't hold a candle to some of these guys.
