Perfect Dog - Human Book December 9, 2007 Kate Feinstein (Newport, Pennsylvania) 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
Very funny book, and unique perspective on the dog-human relationship. Had me laughing out loud in several sections, especially as my own dog has trained me on some of Tess's same lessons. Also insightful to many human quirks, and how our habits are viewed from the dogs' perspective. Great gift for dog lovers, and keep one for yourself.
Very clever November 11, 2007 Dog Owner (Lake Mary, FL USA) 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
This book will bring a smile to any dog owner's face. Very well written.
Too True December 7, 2007 John D. Kaufmann (Saratoga Springs, NY) 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
This book is a tell all. Tess, a lab owned by Brian Kahn exposes the way she shamefully manipulates him. She shares all the well know secrets and some not so well known about how dogs, under the guise of being pleasers in fact run the homes they live in.
I must concede she does so with wit and charm. This is a fun book.

it is the funniest book written from a dog's perspective. If you love dogs it is just hilarious and you can see the logic
absolutely hilarious January 12, 2009 M. Conner (Texas) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you have a labrador, this is a must-read. My dog "trained" me in much the same way that Tess apparently trained her owner. The commentary from the dog's perspective is very clever - I especially loved the section on taking walks. According to Tess, humans' lack of a sense of smell causes us to walk in a straight line and miss out on much of the richness of the world.
