Publisher's Synopsis
One day a delivery van arrives with a strange machine. Murphy puts up quite a fight, but Cheryl is determined to get him trim and fit. Soon, the neighbors can't stop talking about Murphy's new activity. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks! Readers will delight in the familiar battle of wills between pet and owner, hilariously portrayed through Harriet Ziefert's witty text and Emily Bolam's warm, expressive illustrations.
