Synopsis

When Garden & Gun magazine debuted a column aptly named "Good Dog," it quickly became one of the publication's most popular features in print. Now, Editor in Chief David DiBenedetto (proud owner of a Boykin spaniel) and the editors of G&G have gathered the most memorable stories, as well as original pieces, in this collection of essays written by some of the most notable dog owners in literature and journalism.



Good Dog offers memorable, beautifully written stories of dog ownership, companionship, friendship, and kinship. From the troublemakers who can't be fenced in to the lifelong companions who won't leave our sides, this poignant anthology showcases man's best friend through all of his most endearing—and sometimes maddening—attributes. By turns inspirational and humorous (just like the dogs we love), Good Dog is a must-have collection for dog lovers everywhere.

Good Dog was a good book. With books that is made up with many stories, you are always hoping for one that is exceptional and hoping it is not the same ole same ole.

Goodreads review by Randy on January 30, 2015

Good Dog is an enjoyable compilation of essays written by many contemporary authors about the impact dogs have had in their lives. Many of these authors seem to have connections with the South; hailing from there, currently living there, or both. It comes as little surprise then, that many of these......more
