‘Finally, a dog book to recommend unequivocally.’ Debra Adelaide, Sydney Morning Herald

‘Lots of humour, and heart warming pieces, but this book also seriously acknowledges the depth of relationships with dogs, the true importance of their place in our hearts, and in our emotional health and well-being. For many of us our longest relationship ever, has been with a special dog.’ 

Rebecca Kagan, LOTL

‘If you are a dog owner, you cannot help but bask in the supreme feeling of justice that these wonderful creatures have finally received the recognition they deserve.  Don’t expect a ‘cute’ girl-dog book; the pages capture enticing and real experiences between women and their pets.’
