I'm not one for cutesy little stories about puppies and rainbows but I loved this book. I have had cocker spaniels all my life, as has my mother and grandmother so I figured it may be worth a laugh. Little did I know that I would read this book in 6 hours!

As soon as I started reading I kept thinking of our current dog and ones who had passed before. It is hard to not relate to this book in any way. If you are an animal lover at all, I suggest this book. It is not all just about the dog but how the dog made a family from the most unexpected events and people.
