Title: Puttin' On the Dawg
Review: The reason I picked up this book was because there was a picture of a Boxer on the cover. The only thing that kept me reading it was that I was dying to see if Louise ever got poor Libro's bad leg checked out. I could have skipped to the last chapter to find that out but the story does give one an insight on dog ownership in New York. It is a completely different experience than anyplace else. The author is far too self-centered to own a pet. The dog seems more like an accessory that the author values less than her little black book. Maybe Libro can teach her a thing or two about unconditional love and the difference between love and lust. I never got the impression that Louise loved Libro. He was more like a puzzle to figure out and cope with. Even the title tells him to bark if he loves her. Get over yourself, lady!
