| 520 | |a "Told from the perspective of a self-identified "crazy dog lady," these eleven interconnected essays follow one woman's relations with five different dogs.

This is not a sentimental "who-rescued-whom?" book about the healing power of animals. Instead, it explores one representative human's relationships with dogs, with all their joys but also their frustrations, neuroses, and downright craziness"-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
