"The Good Dog"
"The Hook"
'In Colorado, the mountain town of steamboat springs must have at least 300 dogs. Jacks Malemute, McKinley, is the leader of them all. But Jack, being a human has no way of knowing that. For him, his families dog is just a great pal, and protector. Jack cannot not know that Redburn, a "Leash Licking Irish Setter" is McKinleys rival for the head dog. The boy cannot know with the sudden appearence of a she- wolf, named Luping is sayiong that McKinleys and maybe Jacks life could be in danger. Lupins message: Dogs, free yourselves from mandkind. Come join us, we who need you replenish our diminishing wolf pack in the wild. But imagine now, a good dog, loyal to his human pup, would hear the call of Lupin, and actually think of leaving his boy.'
"Recommendation"
Have you ever felt like your life was in danger? Well, McKinley does. McKinley is an Alaskian Malamute living with his boy, Jack. Mckinley takes care of and protects Jack. But when McKinleys life is in danger, he needs to choose if he should stay with his boy, or go to the call of the she- wolf, Lupin. McKinley is a smart dog and knows what choice he makes with make or break his life and maybe even put Jacks life in danger. If Jack goes out and looks for Mckinley, he will never find him and will be crushed. But as the rest of the dogs in Colorado, he thinks going with Lupin would prove that he is actually an amazing pack leader. McKinley also want to make sure that Jack doesnt spend to much time with Redburn, his "Rival". To find out if Mckinley ends up going to the call of Lupin, or if he stays with his boy, Jack, you will just have to read this amazing, great story that kept me and will most likely keep you, on the edge of you'r seat!
WARNING: THIS BOOK IS DEFINATLEY FOR DOG LOVERS!
