Marley & Me by John Grogan
Anybody read this one? It's a neat story about a family and their dog - a big, goofy lab - they claim he's neurotic. The story is just about the family and their exploits with the dog and his behaviour. There's nothing sensational in the book at all - it's just a good story to read. Some of the dog's exploits are hilarious - others are pretty sad. All in all, if you are looking for a good dog-related story, I recommend this book.
Yesterday we were on a dog walk and a yellow lab flew past us - through the bushes - it was having a blast! I asked the owners if they had read the book Marley and Me - they had and we all had a good laugh about their dog's antics compared to Marley's...

I heard a lot of good things about this book. Last time I tried to read one (the fourth Harry Potter) I stopped after an hour , too many dogs here , they don't like to see me read so I just gave up.

Seems the cats here have a thing against any kind of reading... i'd be afraid what they might do if I read a book about a dog
Alas, i've heard lots of good things about this book too, i'm just afraid some of it might be a little too hard to read since we all know how it ends :sad:

Ah, yes - the ending .... are u sure you know how it ends??? Yes, Marley ages and passes but... yes - there's more and I won't say what it is!
Shadow (my cat) has a thing about me reading too - it doesn't matter what book it is - if he can get between me and the light - he will; if he can get on the book - even better! if he can't do either of those, he will rub against the book so much that I just can't read it or - he will start to chew the pages!
