Reader reviews for A Dog's Gotta Do What a Dog's Gotta Do: Dogs at Work

From the publisher

A fascinating look at the work that dogs do, from herding sheep to rescuing lost and injured people.
One day last year Gus caught a burglar.
Bruno saved a man from drowning.
Abby cheered up sick children at a hospital.
Max starred in a movie.
Hard-working people? No. Hard-working dogs!
Every dog is born with the ability to do a particular job. Centuries ago, people recognized these natural talents and began using dogs to help them with a variety of chores. Whether hunting and pulling sleds or performing before royalty, these beloved animals have been important workers as well as faithful friends.
Best-selling author Marilyn Singer gives young readers an exciting introduction to the many kinds of work that dogs do. This is the ultimate dog book -- a thrilling combination of natural history and the true tales of canine heroes who were just doing their jobs.

First line

They were called Good Shepherd, Trusty, Brave, Speedy, Master, Breath-of-Life, the Black One, the One with Pointed Ears, the Cook-pot (the last probably because it ate a lot).
