Right now the four reviewers at DogEvals are reading four wonderful books so we wanted to whet your appetite for January’s reviews.
The books are (in no specific order) Stepdog: A Memoir, by Mireya Navarro (Putnam, 248 pages, 2015, $26.95), a wonderfully funny tale about a stepmom who married a man with a dog that is not very lovable (caveat: the author does not use dog-friendly methods of training),

Sit Stay Heal: How an Underachieving Labrador Won Our Hearts and Brought Us Together, by Mel Miskimen (Sourcebooks, $15.99, 285 pages, 2016), another remarkably humorous story of recovering from a death in the family via a black lab who is resilient enough for all (caveat: this book also does not use training methods that DogEvals recommends),
The Midnight Dog Walkers: Positive Training and Practical Advice for Living with a Reactive or Aggressive Dog, by Annie Phenix (i-5 Publishing, 224 pages, 2016, $19.95), a book that puts you smack-dab in the middle of the non-fiction story and also gives the solution when you have a ‘difficult’ dog, and
The Pit Bull Life: A Dog Lover’s Companion, by Deirdre Franklin and Linda Lombardi (Countryman Press, 232 pages, 2017, $21.95), a delightful combination of photo and fact.
