I didnt mind this one, but I think that sometimes the buster would think something that only a human would notice?
It was sad to think about that in a dog or a pets life they can change homes so often and its all left to the whims of humans for them. 2024-reads review-books review-books-read3 s Julie Busa348 11

I really d reading from the dogs point of view. I work with dogs who are bounced from one owner to the next, many times over. Well done!1 Miriam Downey529 13
Ever wondered what a dog is thinking about? The charming novella about life written from the perspective of a bulldog named Buster lets you know that a dog will accept a lot of goings-on with life around him if he is offered food, love and companionship. Additionally, a dog is not blind to the drama that life brings to the humans with whom he is living. Buster experiences a lot of drama during his life, and in a short number of pages, the reader experiences all that drama as well.
Buster: a Dog is a masterfully written piece by the masterful writer, George Pelecanos. I was enchanted and read the book in one sitting. I d that Pelecanos kept the story as a novella, because it packed a greater punch than if it had been written as a novel with long passages about Busters owners. Well done.

George P. Pelecanos's Buster: A Dog is a beautifully written, heart-breaking story that fits right into his world of crime, mystery and D.C. noir all told by the unly narrator, Buster, a boxer. It was simply beautiful, emotional and if you've ever been lucky enough to have a dog that is just a little bit more than a dog than you'll understand what makes Buster such an amazing character.

From a pup to an aged dog, Buster: A Dog speaks the language of a a gentle, loyal dog. Buster goes from master to master, good and bad, caring and volatile. He 'tells' in no uncertain terms what his feelings are and how he s living his life.
An imaginative story that has been told many times. Short, easy to read, and full of dogginess.
