If I were wealthy, I'd buy every dogperson a copy of this book, but I'm not, so I'm doing the next best thing - telling you about it.

I received the book, "Cooking with Dogs" in the mail today and had to stop everything I was doing to sit down and read it. What a joy!! Author Karen Dowell, a member of TALK ABOUT DOGS List, has written vignettes about what it's like to live with dogs. Several artists have contributed their interpretation of her words. Pure poetry . . . and not ONE recipe, either!!

I highly recommend this book, for yourself and for the dogpersons on your holiday list - any holiday. Or "just because", since we dogfolks love to read about our favorite subject.

Mrs. Dowell has written a series of vignettes describing the unseen bond between owner and dog. The stories are touching, humorous and always thought-provoking. I will never look at my dogs in the same light.

I was sadly disappointed when I found out this is not a cook book :(

We love our dogs, incorporate them into our family and, gradually, take them for granted.

With "Cooking with Dogs", the droll Dowell reminds us why we love our dogs and helps us understand what makes them tick, although not what ticks make of them.

Buy it. Read it. Smile a lot.

I read these glowing reviews, I ordered the book as a gift,
and upon reading it first, discovered it wasn't all that insightful or charming. You can do better.
