Customer Reviews

Hilarious and sweet

I read this book at the house of a fellow dog lover and ended up ordering 6 copies for other dog lovers I know! Can't wait to share it with them, as they will appreciate the not only the humor, but how well it represents the personalities of dogs we have all known and loved.

Who's running the show?

This book must be written by a really smart old dog because he does seem to know how everything works. I read some of it to my dogs and they totally agree. We all had a great tummy scratch and took a nap. Great fun!!

This book must be written by a really smart old dog because he does seem to know how everything works. I read some of it to my dogs and they totally agree. We all had a great tummy scratch and took a nap. I just ordered two more for other pups I know. Great fun!!

A must own for every dog lover

They could have written this book about my two Labs. If you need a good laugh this is it.

If you love dogs, you'll love this book

The authors have done a teriffic job getting inside the head of older dogs teaching 'the tricks of the trade' to the pups. I laughed, I barked. This book is so darn funny. If you love dogs, or know someone who does, this is the book to buy.
