Rudyard Kipling here turns his hand to the canine world. Each delightful story centres around a particular dog - whether 'Toby Dog', - 'The Black Aberdeen', or 'A Sea Dog' - and reveals the creature's relation to his human counterpart. The works demonstrate once again Kipling's remarkable skill at delighting adults and children alike.

This book is made up entirely of stories told by dogs. in their own voices. Most people who own dogs know they can talk, but few know they can write. Professional writers are the ones most likely to discover this and when they do, act as ghost writers for their dogs.

Poetry is a favorite medium for dogs, and many poems are included here, including one transmitted through Robert Frost.
