Stories

By: Jon Katz

Narrated by: Tom Stechschulte

With his signature insight and gift for storytelling, Jon Katz here shares 16 stories about one of life’s most unique relationships. In the title story, a housekeeper loses her job, but discovers her four-legged “children” have some toe-tapping talents that just may get the whole family back on its feet. In “Puppy Commando” a shy grade-school outcast forges an instant connection with a beagle puppy she meets at a shelter - and risks everything to keep him. “Gracie’s Last Walk” features a woman who must find a way to say goodbye to her beloved golden retriever - but ends up saying hello to someone unexpected. “The Dog Who Kept Men Away” shows that not all humans pass the “sniff” test when it comes to canines, who possess an excellent judge of character. And in “Guardian Angel” a widower going through a painful transition finds the greatest comfort in the unlikeliest of sources: a funny-looking pug named Gus.

Truly heart warming

I don't think you will need to be a dog lover to love this book, but it will help.

Jon Katz

If you care at all about animals and their relationships with us humans, you will find anything that Jon Katz creates enjoyable. Heartwarming, funny, sometimes sad but most enjoyable. A pleasant experience with no mention of Trump. Yes!

Each story is lovely.

I loved it.
It was fun to have short stories with great endings. Some of the stories were so good, I listened to them over again. All of the stories were uplifting.

Good dogs & Good people

Man’s and women’s best friend in a wonderful collection of tales. Clever and not too sugary.
There is even one story about a cat.

Interesting and heartwarming stories about dogs

Stories were very touching and a few brought tears to my eyes and reminded me of my three dogs who are no longer living
