Publisher's Synopsis
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
