review 1: I enjoyed this book because it is so relatable. I consider myself a "crazy dog lady", my dogs are my babies and life without them--well it wouldn't be life.

If you consider yourself a "crazy dog lady" or just a dog lover, this book would be a good read for you!

... moreer one peril of essays collections: unevenness. I enjoyed every single essay—I read them doggedly! Wonder-Westie Carlie makes a fine and intrepid hero, and the details are expertly selected and telling, whether it’s the color of a collar or the telltale gesture that reveals a man to be that most loathsome of creatures: a non-dog-person. All in all, I give it 5 out of 5 biscuits. less
