Awesome true dog story!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 8 years ago
A beloved cattle dog falls overboard on a family outing. What happens next captures the imagination and remains almost unbelievable in the end.
I listened rather than read so it took a bit of concentration initially to get used to the Aussie accent but after a bit I was held captive.
The only negative for me was just prior to the end it seemed a little wordy but the overall story was so wonderful I forgave that problem.
It's long! It would make for great listening on long car rides
