Recommended for any dog owner

We bought a Papillon and the breeder who sold her to us highly recommended this book. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was hard to tell how much was "real" versus made up or exaggerated in the telling, but regardless, it was a good read, if only to convince myself that I'm not that obsessed with our dogs!

Insanely Funny

I got this book from my husband for Christmas. I have a LIST of people I am lending this book to...it's hillarious! Anyone that gives it less than 5 stars just doesn't understand what life is like when you are obsessed with your dog. So many times through this book I could swear I was writing it. Of course I feel a bond of sorts with Jenny Lee since she did consider a French Bulldog. I own two...and several other dogs and animals. And, YES, I am obsessed with all of them. Two PAWS UP!

Good to know I'm not the only one!

I was recommended this book by one of my dog loving friends who said that it was a must read--and I'm pleased to report he is absolutely right! It's such a relief to know that there are others out there who obsess about their dogs the way I obsess about my Jack Russell--McKenzie. I too throw birthday parties for my dog and also have a weakness for cute Halloween costumes. The best thing about this book is that the author embraces her neurotic tendencies and owns up the fact that she's a little nutty when it comes to her dog, but you never blame her for it because it's obvious that it comes from the heart. There are also some really funny charts in the back of the book! It's definitely a great gift for the dog lovers in your life!

Loved it, and YES I am an obsessed dog owner

I was given this book by a friend, since my dog is also named Wendall (with an A) and I have to say, besides relating to MUCH of the book, I loved the way Jenny writes. I had never read anything by her before, that I am aware of, but I now a huge fan and can't wait to to read more! I felt her writing was intersting, smart and most of all FUNNY! I laughed out loud at times, with my own Wendall right at my side. I can't wait to have my other friends, be them dog lovers or not, read this. It is wonderul!!!

Obsessed, I Admit It!

I had two different friends call me up and tell me about this book, which is probably the biggest indicator that I am obsessed with my dog, Higgins. I took their advice and bought What Wendell Wants and I'm so glad that I did, because I laughed all the way through it. Jenny Lee really opens up her life to you and shares lots of stories about her dog Wendell and his place in her life. What I found interesting is that she knows she's obsessed but seems a bit unsure about what to make of it, but by the end she realizes that it's okay because she knows it all comes from love. There are also lots of hilarious snippets included, top ten lists and even a breakdown of different type of owners I'm proud to say I'm the "Raging Neurotic". It's nice that she can laugh at herself, first, before she laughs at others. If you have a dog who is more than "just a dog" this is the book for you. p.s. my dog Higgins couldn't agree more.
