Critically acclaimed memoirist Wade Rouse has gathered some of America's best known humorists - authors, comedians, and actors - to offer biting commentary on what it means to share a life, and a heart, with a dog. From battling for bed space to trying to transform a pampered NYC pup into a Texas rawhide, and from helping a shelter rescue navigate through her new life to interpreting dog-run dynamics (and politics), being a canine companion has challenges as tough as any agility course. But laughter is just a tail-wag away.
This collection features uncanny insight and witty prose from:
- Jen Lancaster
- Rita Mae Brown
- Laurie Notaro
- Jane Green
- Beth Harbison
- W. Bruce Cameron
- And many others, including a foreword by Chelsea Handler's dog, Chunk
