About this listen
The perfect, feel-good holiday gift from W. Bruce Cameron, the number one New York Times and USA Today best-selling author of the A Dog's Purpose series
The problems fracturing the Goss family as Christmas approaches are hardly unique, though perhaps they are handling them a little differently than most people might. But then a true emergency arises, one with the potential to not only ruin Christmas, but everything holding the family together.
Is the arrival of a lost puppy yet another in the string of calamities facing them, or could the little canine be just what they all need?
A Dog’s Perfect Christmas is a beautiful, poignant, delightful tale of what can happen when family members open their hearts to new possibilities. You’ll find love and tears and laughter - the ideal holiday listen.

When US Marine Rob Kugler returns from war not only had he given up a year of his life in service to his country, but he had also lost a brother in the fighting as well. Lost in grief, Rob finds solace and relief in the one thing that never fails to put a smile on his face: his chocolate lab, Bella. Exceptionally friendly, and always with - you wouldn’t believe it - a smile on her face, Bella is the friend Rob needs, and they spend their days exploring nature and taking photos. But then Bella develops a limp in her front leg. It’s cancer.

You’ve probably never met someone like Clancy. He’s keeping a diary, he’s falling in love, there are rivals for his affections, he lives with his best friend and his worst enemy—even taken together, these factors are maybe not that unusual, except that Clancy is a dog. His point of view is therefore perhaps…different. Told in Cameron’s signature style, a tremendous cast of wonderful characters find themselves jointly and separately navigating the challenges of life, of love, and…other pets, including Clancy's “worst enemy”—one very disdainful cat.

Need more Dog
It was cute. Needed more about Ruby & Winston. They were like secondary characters. As far as narration, the voice was too old and there was no pause between scenes.

Very entertaining
Different from other Cameron books, but loved the story and how the family worked together to meet challenges.

light read
This was a light feel good holiday read. I like how Bruce Cameron writes stories with good men and the struggles they face.
I loved The Midnight Plan of the Repo Man and would recommend that book over this one.

A Perfect Christmas book
Bruce, and his team, have done it again! I stayed glued to every word. Each character was relatable, and left you routing for them.

Nice Story
I realize I only have this 3 stars, but I did enjoy it. There are a couple of reasons I didn't rate it higher:
**VERY mild spoilers ahead**
1) This was written a bit differently than a typical W Bruce Cameron book. It's a bit heavier, first of all--tackling complex family dynamics and grief. There was also MUCH less emphasis on the dogs in the story--in fact, we don't even meet one of them until midway through. It was still well written, but it was different. And, while I did appreciate the human interest and family dynamics, I often found myself thinking, "Where are the DOGS in 'A DOG'S Christmas?!?'"
2) This wasn't much of a Christmas story. Although it happened at Christmastime, and ended on Christmas Day, there wasn't really that much Christmas content. I wanted a Christmas story--not just a story that happens at Christmas.
Overall, this was a good story and I did enjoy it. It just didn't really ring the Christmas bell or doggie fix for me.

Family & Dog's Christmas Story
I'm a big fan of Cameron's books about dogs, particularly the A Dog's Purpose series. That's why I picked up this Christmas-themed dog story.
The story follows a multi-generational family, each facing their own struggles: jobs, parenting, the loss of a loved one, and more. Then there are the dogs. An older family dog moves slowly, in step with the family's daily lives. A second dog, a puppy, was later added to the story.
The addition of a Christmas dog or puppy to the story is sudden. This story is more about the humans than the dogs. The scenes featuring the older dog and the puppy are brief and pass quickly. I was disappointed that the dog's story and its purpose in the book were not explored further. Christmas feels like an event that will happen at some point, rather than a story that revolves around celebrating it.
The human stories are written in-depth, and each has enough time to establish the plot and reach a better, even happy, ending for each family member. This was done well and was enjoyable to read.
Overall, it was an entertaining story, but it lacked dogs for me.

A Different Perspective
Great story and performance as usual but this book is from a different perspective. Instead of the story from a dog’s viewpoint this one is from everyone’s perspective. Makes for a richer story. I enjoyed it!

A Wonderful Family Story
My family has always loved R. Bruce Cameron's books. We have listened to all of them as a family and this one did not disappoint. A true feel good family story!
