A big little life; a memoir of a joyful dog, by Dean Koontz


If you have ever had the company of one of those special dogs - the dignified, intelligent, lovely ones - you will appreciate Dean Koontz's memoir of his good dog Trixie. I've enjoyed sharing my home with four dogs, all special in their own way, and one of the four was one of those rare ones that considered it her duty to care for her human family. So I enjoyed reading about Koontz's Trixie, even if I'll admit to skimming bits and doing some picking and choosing among the chapters. I suspect the proceeds of this book will go to a canine charity tho I could not find that it actually said so anywhere in the book. Or maybe the entire book said that.
