Customer Reviews

Awesome read for the dog lover!

Fantastic read! I couldn't put it down. Do yourself a favor and read everything with Ken Foster's name on it!

For the dogs

Dog Culture has a little of everything for the dog lover. Its funny at times, sad, and up lifting. This book is a collection of stories/essays about people and their relationship to dogs. Ken Fosters' story is probably the best one in the book. But this book also contains a Chuck Palahniuk (Author of Fight Club and Choke)essay about rescue dogs which is also very good. There were about two or three stories that just didn't seem to fit here, but all in all, collectively this is a very good read.
