This book was a delight for those who love dogs. It is quite a deviation from Jim Kraus's other novels. He has a lot of insight into how a dog would think about what humans do. Mr. Kraus also brought out the fact that as a dog, marriage, dating, etc. mean nothing to a dog. Many times I would laugh out loud at what the dog said. It is definitely a fun read.

The Dog That Talked to God by Jim Kraus is about a bitter widow who blames God for taking away her husband and son who died in an auto accident when hit by a drunk driver more than about the dog. Mary doubted her faith and stopped praying to God for a long time. She got a puppy she named Rufus and used it as a sounding board. Then one day the dog talked to her. This Christian fiction book dragged along for me but at least had a good ending. I preferred the authors other book better The Cat That God Sent.
This is the kind of story that when you read the last page and close the book, you just want to sit and enjoy the warm feelings it has left you with.
