Urban Dog Book Club

Call to Action

Last week I wrote about “Books About Dogs.” The post met with a degree of enthusiasm that surprised me a bit!

Because of that, I thought we’d try to have an Urban Dog Book Club. I’ll choose a book for you to read and include your opinions or comments about the book in a post a month later.

The first book is The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein. You have until May 1 to read it. Have your comments to me by then.

Here’s a brief excerpt from a review on the Kirkus website.

Stein (How Evan Broke His Head and Other Secrets, 2005, etc.) uses a dog as narrator to clever effect in this tear-jerker about an aspiring race-car driver who suffers more woes than Job but never mistreats his dog… Pointedly inspirational.

The whole review is a bit spoiler-y, so don’t read it if you want to read the book with no knowledge of the plot points.

Click iTunes here and Amazon here to buy the book.

Sean is a passionate dog lover and the proud owner of Urban Dog’s Official Spokes-Dog, Bodhi the Weimaraner. His family has always owned dogs, but Bodhi is the first he's been fully responsible for since puppyhood… and he couldn't be more doting. As a longtime New Yorker of more than 20 years, Sean knows what a dog's and dog owner's lifestyle is like in NYC. Besides being a doggy dad and top dog at Urban Dog, Sean also has a "real job" experience as co-owner of a Palm Beach, Florida-based private investigative firm, and as a licensed (pet friendly) Real Estate Salesperson with Douglas Elliman in NYC. Sean also exercised his creativity and business sense as an award-winning journalist, producer, TV marketing exec, and private investigator. When not blogging, working, or playing with Bodhi, he is an avid adventure traveler who has circumnavigated the world, bird-watched on all seven continents, safari-ed in Africa, and SCUBA-dived in exotic waters.
