This is a collection of stories about the memorable dogs Herriot treated during his career. Some are funny and some are heartbreaking, but Herriot is a terrific writer and you can't help but get emotionally involed.

All of James Herriot's experiences with dogs throughout his veterinary career. Most of the stories in this book are pulled from his other books in the "All Creatures" series. There are three stories that are not seen elsewhere. As always, Herriot's experiences as a country vet are sentimental and touching. Some will have you laughing... others crying. I especially like this collection of dog stories and I think any other dog lover would too!

Love the stories in this book, it gives a view of a dog's life with the vet and dog lover perspective. I'm a dog lover and owner ,so I can relate to some of Herriot's stories. Herriot's stories are told in an easy to read way, and at the same time teaches about what kind of illness a dog can suffer and how different, in respect to humans, dogs behave when they are sick. They are still loving creatures and don't take their suffering with you. Maybe we need to learn more from them.
It's a fun book to read even if you're not a dog lover.
