The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein!

 

OMG THE BEST BOOK EVER! This is the first book i ever actually wanted to finish. I would go to bed at night wondering what was going to happen in the next chapter.

 

HIGHLY RECOMENDED!!!!!!

Marley and Me. A great tear-jerker

Or if you like fiction, the book Dog On It by Spencer Quinn is a good mystery novel, and the dog is telling the story, so you get it from his perspective, which is makes it funny if you're a dog person.

Have you read "The Darkest Evening of the Year" by Dean Koontz?  I don't normally read his books but knowing that I'm a dog person someone recommended it to me and it was good.

Here are some I enjoyed:

Walking Ollie

Amazing Gracie

Marley and Me

The Adventures of a Lost Pet: k-9 Cop turned Pet Detective

All of them are true stories, and VERY enjoyable!

I just bought "The Art of Racing in the Rain"...hope I like it.  I liked Marley & Me as well...it was better than the movie.  Has anyone read "Rescuing Sprite"?  It kind of sounds like a knock-off of Marley & Me just from reading what it's about.

Never read it, but want to. If you read it let me know how it is!

Thanks for mentioning "Rescuing Sprite". I forgot I had it! I picked it up at Waldenbooks a good while back, when they were closing the store at the mall. Haven't gotten around to reading it yet.

Haven't gotten "Racing" yet, but it's on my list of ones to check out.
