She had the wiener dogs, he had the labs.The dogs have a lot to say and most likely they will surprise you! Have a look into the "living, breathing cartoons" that the author says inhabit their daily life and be prepared to smile, chuckle, giggle, or guffaw out loud!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Dog Dialogues, January 10, 2006
By 
Rebecca D. Jarus (Manhattan Beach, CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Dog Dialogues (Paperback)
Laura Hinson Miller has a way of telling her stories with humor and reality all mixed together to make us believe she actually does have talking pets. Anyone who has lived with their pet for many years knows that we tend to personify our furry friends. They have that certain "look" when they want something from us. Some of our dogs and cats even have mannerisms that make us think they are talking to us telepathically. Well, Laura hears her dogs loud and clear. So she has given them their voice and in so doing takes their stories and completes them for us humans. Now, when the dog leaves the yard to go on a merry adventure, we understand what they are really thinking and why they left in the first place. Knowing both sides of the story makes it hilarious. She tells her stories so vividly that I actually thought I did hear her dog talking.

This was such a fun read that I read it out loud to my husband and 21 and 9 year old sons on a long car trip. After every story I stopped and asked, do you want me to read another? Several quick nods and I read another, and another and another and you get it, I read the entire book to them. Our only disappointment was that it was over and we still had time left in our car. Too bad there isn't another book of these stories told the way only Laura can tell it.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Fence Insults" is worth the price of this book!, January 31, 2006
By 
This review is from: The Dog Dialogues (Paperback)
I must have read this chapter 5 times and I still laugh so hard I cry! What a gem this book is for those of us who appreciate the nuances of animal communication. Each chapter is a delightful morsel of insight and humor. The author captures both the superficial and the deep messages surrounding human-pet and pet-pet relations. I plan to keep this book on my desk when I need to lighten up and have a good laugh during my day.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Slam Dunk for Dog Lovers, January 20, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Dog Dialogues (Paperback)
I got this for my wife for Christmas but read it before she did as I knew I would. There are actual laugh out loud moments in the book which is rare today. The stories are brief but will strike a responsive cord in dog owners and lovers everywhere. I think that is why we like books like this, they confirm that other people do the same things we do. Like have both halves of a conversation with our dogs and firmly believe we get the dog's comments exactly right. The book is enhanced by having one of the author's weiner dogs be a rescue from a puppy mill. I see from the author's web page he is gone now but he had a lot of good years with her. Just a pleasant read that leaves you feeling better about everything.
