'Jean Gill has captured the innermost thoughts of this magnificent animal.' Les Ingham, Pyr International 'Nobody writes dog stories better.' Karen Charlton, the Detective Lavender Mysteries 'This book makes you feel, respect, cherish, accept and fight for the treasures of life. It almost makes me wish dogs could read it too, ' Anita Kovacevik, The Threshold 'Funny, touching, heartfelt and memorable, this is one of those books that should have a 'must read' tag on its cover. All in all, it is a good entertaining book with a great message.' MWB Review 'The way Jean Gill speaks for the dogs, in beautiful writing with illuminating narrative and dialogue, I felt like I understood everything the dogs were thinking/saying to each other. I recognized so much of these dogs' behaviors in my own dog, which was touching. I truly recommend this beautiful and thoroughly entertaining book!' Ulla Hakanson, The Price of Silence 'Thank you for the wonderful experience of being in a dog's head. I've often wondered what a dog's world was all about. Now I know.'
