It sounds like a sweet story. The Title made me curious, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. Thanks for the great review!

Great review. Sounds like a great story for children. I am an animal lover and hearing stories about rescues and adoptions are wonderful.

I think that it's a lovely idea for a children's book, it provides an alternative for the fairytales and fantasy books. Thanks for the review

Nice work buddy, you really inspired me with this exuberant dog story, making me think I should own a dog. So educative.

I had two Rottweiler dogs growing up. It is true that dogs are your best friend. I miss them dearly. Great review!

Sounds like a cute story. Dogs are really creatures of habit and can get stressed because of changes. The book can be a great way to encourage kids and families to adopt dogs. Thanks for the great review.

Thanks for the review. I think it sounds like a really cute book. It is too bad there were so many grammatical errors and incorrect tenses that would take away from a four star rating.

Good point about getting children to understand how a dog ages.
Thanks for another great review!

This sounds like a cute story for kids with not only a great "main character" but also a topic that can open up a child's mind. Thanks for the review.

Perhaps someone has already asked this but can you explain a little more about the title of the book? Thanks for the review.
