Every dog lover needs to have this book!, Nov 30 2004
By SLO Writer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Unbelievably Good Deals and Great Adventures That You Absolutely Can't Get Unless You're a Dog (Paperback)
I have always been a huge fan of Darlene Arden. She's smart, articulate and absolutely passionate about dogs -- she may just be dog's best friend. I have all three of her books and each one contains valuable and timely information on some aspect of the relationship between humans and dogs.I especially enjoyed this book and find myself going back to it time and time again. It is a detailed compilation of neat stuff you can do WITH your dog, as well as great things to buy FOR your dog. Sure, you could spend weeks on the Internet and find a lot of this information yourself, but Darlene has done all of us a favor by compiling everything in this handy, inexpensive book. Most of the items listed were totally unfamiliar to me, but I will be checking out many in the weeks to come.
Thank you, Darlene for all that you do on behalf of animals. I intend to give several copies to friends this Christmas.

Useful and fun, Sep 15 2004
By Tracie J. Barber - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Unbelievably Good Deals and Great Adventures That You Absolutely Can't Get Unless You're a Dog (Paperback)
This book is unlike any other dog books I have (and I've got LOTS :-). It's full of all these amazing places to go, things to buy, things to do - that are dog-related. Although it's U.S.-based, websites for the companies make it a handy book even for non U.S. people like me, and there are international companies listed too. There are some really interesting things listed, and it's written in a very readable format. I read the whole book the evening it came, and it's very entertaining as well as useful. Anyone who is a dog-person would love this.
Listmania!
