"This book was a curious mix of dog stories that seemed to be mostly fiction with a smattering of memoirs. Some were excellent - "Comet" by Samuel A. Derieux, who I had never heard of, "For the Love of a Man" by Jack London who of course I had heard of; some were short - "Gone Wrong" by PG Wodehouse; some were longer - "'Teem': a Treasure Hunter" by Rudyard Kipling. A couple of them I disliked, like "Having No Hearts" by Sir Hugh Walpole, and "The Bitch" by Colette." -Reviewed by Barbara Brien on Goodreads.
