I’M NOT THE BIGGEST BITCH IN THIS RELATIONSHIP
Hilarious, Heartwarming Tales About Man's Best Friend from America's Favorite Humorists
An anthology of bark-out-loud original essays about dogs from some of today’s most popular writers.
Critically acclaimed memoirist Wade Rouse has gathered some of America’s best known humorists- authors, comedians, and actors-to offer biting commentary on what it means to share a life, and a heart, with a dog. From battling for bed space to trying to transform a pampered NYC pup into a Texas rawhide, and from helping a shelter rescue navigate through her new life to interpreting dog run dynamics (and politics), being a canine companion has challenges as tough as any agility course, but laughter is just a tail-wag away.
