Review
Stourton is a genuinely warm and engaging writer who clearly loves his canine companion, despite his (relatively few) faults, and this little book is a tasty treat for dog owners and dog lovers.

Utter magic. Edward Stourton is civilized, charming, and writes like an angel. The dogs all spring to life but this is a gorgeous book for everybody - not just for dog lovers. I love it.

Diary of a Dog-walker is a delight, combining gossipy politics and shaggy dog stories adroitly. --Time Out
Delightful... (a) charming and thoughtful book. --The Oldie

This is a lovely book. Edward Stourton really loves his dog and communicates this throughout. I really enjoyed his keen observations of everyday life whilst walking his Springer Spaniel Kudu, some will make you laugh out loud. However, there are some serious sides to the book and the chapter on the fate of dogs in China is to be avoided. Apart from that this book was a joy to read.

I bought this as a present for my wife, a dog lover to the core. It was a welcome addition to our massive library of dog books. Woof!
