Well my sister loved it! She is a big dog fan and has a husband who bred puppies. I suspect if you are a big dog lover you will love this book. She thought it would be a classic.

I thought it was an okay read. I don't see classic potential. I found myself bored in the book with the routine of a dog breeders life. Interesting and educational but boring to me. The part I enjoyed the most was when Edgar leaves and fends for himself with his dogs loyally following. It has some sad and heartwretching times especially with his favorite dog.

If you love dogs you will definetly love this book. It will be relateable to you. I thought it was a worthwhile read but not a book I would highly recommend.
