Description: "Experience along with Doeska, Eugie, Ganny, Gally, Kringle and Lullies as these six canine pack buddies strive to thrive despite the stresses of living in a human world. Ganny, now a Pack Elder, recounts their adventures in his Journal along with the help of his human scribe "Bj". Those adventures are alternately humorous and poignant, offering a compelling experience of the richly textured lives of dogs. See through Ganny's eyes as he willingly works to recover from five near- death experiences that test his mettle ... This heart-warming, experiential journey into how domesticated dogs live in a human world is framed by Bj's comments and observations as the Journal's Scribe."--Dust jacke flap.
