Katz on Dogs: A Commonsense Guide to Training and Living with Dogs by Jon Katz

That’s me caught up on Katz’s dog books.  This time around, he focused on training advice and anecdotes, rather than just relating his own stories about his own dogs.  It’s not my favorite, but it’s not as heartbreaking any of Katz’s books where his dogs die.  I don’t know that I learned anything new about dog training, but I did appreciate having a famous dog-person agree with lots of the decisions we’ve made about our own dog and his training.  That’s plenty.

Oh, and Kayo thinks that Katz should expand his personal dog experience to Chessies

    And Boykins!!

    And, yeah, this wasn’t my favorite of his books, either . . . though I liked it better than “New Work of Dogs.”

    As one of my few acquaintances who might appreciate them, I must ask if you’ve tried the Thursday Next novels by Jasper Fforde?

    I got them from the library expecting fluff, and found a really facinating world where books are alive, and the characters are facinated with… us!

    Also, might I point out: Mecca is coming, Mecca is coming… My work here is done.
