A story of a teenager growing up in Great Falls Montana who comes across an abandoned greyhound and his companion cagey male Canadian Goose. The story is hilarious, especially at the end where the dog catches the rabbit at the racetrack, and rips it to shreds (during a race) and the goose manages to create chaos with the other dogs. The greyhound inspires the teenager to train hard as a track star. I enjoyed the book immensely.
A great coming of age story.

I first read this book about 20 years ago. I recently found it and re-read it. I'm keeping it in my sons room for when he's old enough to read. It's a great story that teaches right from wrong, good versus evil, and about life and death. It does contain a couple hunting sequences.
