This review is from: Dumb-Bell of Brookfield, Pocono Shot, and Other Great Dog Stories (Hardcover)
"Dumb-bell of Brookfield" is classic John Taintor Foote writing. Anyone who enjoyed his book "A Wedding Gift" will want to own "Dumb-bell." Those who aren't familiar with Foote's writing but who are into great dog stories, and not only stories about hunting dogs, will also want to buy this book. It is realy special.

This review is from: Dumb-Bell of Brookfield, Pocono Shot, and Other Great Dog Stories (Hardcover)
As a child my mom read Trub's diary from this book to us. EXCELLENT, been seaching for this book for a while. That story was a really whitty dog's eye view of the world. Don't know about the other stories.
