I have loved all James Herriot books. Most chapters are small, individual stories in their own right; nice to be included in one 'themed' book, but this one re-tells many chapters from other, earlier books. If this is the first one you pick up, you will be delighted.

I'm a softee when it comes to dogs, and this book was a good one. Herriot's works are all good, of course, but this one really agrees with me because I'm such a dog nut. Many of the stories are taken from his other books, but he does add new commentary, and even as repeats they're worth reading again.

Very well written from man who obviously cares about animals. A must read for animal lovers!
Very good book
In this very special, heartwarming collection of favorite stories about dogs great and small, James Herriot tells us about his own dogs and all the wonderful people and animals we have come to love so much.
Every dog lover should read! Loved! this book.
I really liked then veterinary stories in this book, and I am more of a cat person than a dog person. The relationships between James' patients and their masters are truly touching.
Isolating the dog population will please dog lovers and entertain in true Herriot style.
A wonderfully well written book. Full of great stories about all types of dogs and their owners. All dog stories.
