A former Navy pilot recalls an incident from his younger days involving his first real pet, a dog named Buster. In later years he and his family acquire various other pets yet the author never allows himself to become attached to them. In time, he acquires a free weimaraner and that sets the stage for a future which ultimately includes three very diverse dogs of that same breed. While the book is primarily about weimaraners, it is really about all dogs and their relationship with the human members of their "pack." The author and his wife undergo a series of challenges far beyond their early expectations and the results range from sad to hilarious. They begin with a single dog and add a second. The book follows them through puppy stage, the show ring, hunt tests and day-today life. As they finally reach a stable and predictable relationship with the two dogs, they add a third and the chaos begins. There is a great deal of information and lessons learned presented throughout the book. Some methods worked and others failed miserably. The inevitable compromises reflect the impact that the dogs have on the author, his family and friends. This book contains no inappropriate language and is a must for anyone who has ever owned a puppy or anticipates adding one to the family.

From the time Dr. Mark Goldstein was a little boy—even before he had his first dog—he was fascinated by creatures both domestic and wild. After graduating veterinary school at Cornell University, he became a veterinarian in clinical practice, then director of zoos in Boston and Los Angeles, then head of a progressive humane society where he advocated for animal welfare. During his extraordinary 30-year career, Dr. Mark has accrued a lifetime of experiences working with all sorts of animals and the people who care for them. Dr. Mark's life with animals taught him more than how to be a great doctor, it taught him how to live life. The stories in this book reflect those lessons; they will make you laugh and cry as they entertain and amaze you. Each real-life experience sheds light on the challenges and hard work of the talented individuals who work in the world of animal welfare. These are stories that illustrate the tremendous impact animals have on our daily lives—they are hallmarks of the sacred importance of the human-animal bond. On your journey through the exhilarating life of Dr. Mark, you'll meet some of the finned, furred, and feathered animals who offered him invaluable insights—Harold the hamster, Sasha the Siberian tiger, St. Francis the German Shepherd, Ralph the buffalo, Gus the stallion, Frank the goldfish, and many more fascinating creatures!
