Publisher Description
Meet Allie Babcock – The Audacious Dog Therapist with a Flair for Sleuthing
At her brand new shop in Boulder, Allie’s very first client is a dejected collie whose previous owner allegedly took her own life. But with a natural nose for crime, Allie soon suspects murder – leaving her dejected canine client as possibly the sole witness to the crime.
With the scent fresh, Allie is quickly on the case – but a second murder curtails her investigation. Before taking another step, Allie needs to count her enemies: several suspicious dog owners, a boyfriend with a temper (and a demand for vengeance!), and a mysterious door-to-door salesman with a curious tale to tell…
Bizarre salesman, vicious boyfriend and suspect dog owners – one thing is for sure – Allie’s life may never be safe until one of these characters lands in the pen…

It was hard to figure out who the perpetrator was so that kept it hard to put the book down. I love dogs so it was what made me want to read it in the first place. Good book.

I loved this story! I'm a dog lover and latch onto any dog book I find! This shows their intelligence, and the ability to train them is made so obvious! Read and enjoy!!
Too much preaching
I wanted to love this book but the preaching really got to me. It’s almost like the author doesn’t actually like dogs. Because the main character doesn’t seem to like dogs. Although lots of words trying to convince the readers they do. VM Burns does a much much much better job with dogs as characters in her books.
If this weren’t about someone who is supposed to love dogs, I’d probably enjoy the book. The writing is well done. The preachiness of the main character on how to best deal with a dog caused me to roll my eyes too many times a third of the way in that I just stopped reading.
