Dog-gone Page Turners



For those of you still finishing up those holiday shopping lists, I bring you some of the suggestions from the editors of Bark magazine, who also noted that "dog books are getting better and smarter." Just wait until next year--October to be exact. . .

Here's what they like:

Dog Walks Man by John Zeaman, musings while walking the dog

Let's Take the Long Way Home by Gail Caldwell, a memoir of the author's friendship with the late Carole Knapp, author of Pack of Two. I haven't read this one but I have read Knapp's wonderful book(s) so this might be my next Kindle download.

The Lost Dogs: Michael Vick's Dogs and Their Tale of Rescue and Redemption by Jim Gorant, Sports Illustrated scribe documents what happens to some of the dogs rescued from the Michael Vick dog fighting operation

The Love That Dog Training program by Dawn Sylvia-Stasiewicz, Bo Obama's trainer's methodology

A Modern Dog's Life: Discover How to Do the Best for Your Dog by Paul McGreevey. How to be a "life coach" for your pooch.

One Dog at a Time: Saving the Strays of Heimand by Pen Farthing. A British Royal marine Sargent saves dogs in Afghanistan

Do you have any you want to add to the list?
