Product Description

Daily Express, Friday 7th December

"How Blake leaps all hurdles to become Top Dog will have you laughing all the way to the dog's home."


Product Description

Blake is a loveable mongrel just trying to lead a happy life; he loves his owner, fiercely defends his territory against interlopers (including the owner's new lady friend and her cat), does his best to avoid the frequently threatened neutering and spends a lot of his time either scooting across the carpet or chasing local tail. It really is a dog's life, and Blake has kindly taken the time to keep a diary of a year in his own life - providing a hilarious, unputdownable glimpse into the mind and world of your average mutt. Adorably illustrated throughout in Blake's own hand, this book has all the wit and addictive pace of the diaries of Adrian Mole and Bridget Jones and will delight a wide range of readers and dog lovers, including fans of the successful Marley and Me and Copper by Annabel Goldsmith.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, humorous book, 13 Nov 2007
By Julie Bolitho - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This little delight was something I perused in the book store and bought as a gift for a relative. I ended up reading it myself and buying eight more to give as Christmas gifts. It's charming and hysterically funny. I laughed so hard in bed reading it that I'd wake my husband. It's a gem!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Book for Belly Laughs., 9 Oct 2007
An extremely funny book, I actually cried laughing in some parts. I wasn't expecting to enjoy this as I am not really a big fan of dogs, but nevertheless it was very entertaining, filled with moments of humour, romance (well, doggy style romance - ha ha) and pathos. Would definately recommend it to anyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars I laughed out loud, 28 Oct 2008
By S. Birch (Britain) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Couldn't put it down and embarrassed my wife by laughing out loud when reading it in public places.

I'm not a dog lover but I would love to take Blake down the pub but not to the resturant.

Brilliant.
