I'm rating this book high only because of the AWESOMETASTIC CUTESY DOGGIES!! *ahem* Yeah. The introduction made it sound like this book would be a lot more.... insightful, serious, etc... then it was. Yes, there are some serious "dog thoughts" in here, but there are a LOT of pages where it's "omg stick" and "omg let's run" and silly crap like that. (
