I am always reading at least one book, but I don’t have time to review or mention all the dog-related books I read. Of course, some are not worth mentioning and some I don’t bother to finish. In case anyone is interested in reading the same books or voicing an opinion, I plan to do a better job of keeping you updated on what I’m reading. The current books I’ve started include A Member of the ...
