Critic reviews

"A heartfelt memoir that chronicles one man’s relationship with his mixed-breed dog…Told in an earnest and humorous voice, Camen's memoir traces his 13-year journey with his dog, Snoopy…The memoir is full of anecdotes that every dog owner and animal lover will appreciate… At the heart of Camen and Snoopy's story is the remarkable bond between human and dog." ( Kirkus Reviews)

"Many people don't realize that when they rescue a pet, the pet also rescues them. Joey Camen demonstrates that with warmth, humor and a few tears in this touching story of his life with Snoopy. And if anyone knows a good story about a guy and his dog, it's me." (Jon Provost, animal lover and actor best known as Timmy from Lassie)

"I LOVE this book and couldn't put it down. It will make you smile with Joey's wonderful sense of humor, and it will pull at your heart strings as well. If you don't have a pet, you will want to rush out and get one and if you DO have a pet, it will make you want to hug them a few extra times each day. Snoopy will never be forgotten and now I know why "Dog" is "God" spelled backwards." (Beverly Washburn — Dedicated animal rescuer and actress, whose many films include Old Yeller)
