Publisher's summary

Includes an audiobook-exclusive introduction from the author.

Go behind-the-scenes with Duane "Dog" Chapman, star of the hit reality show Dog the Bounty Hunter and two-time New York Times bestselling author, as he shares new stories about his faith in Jesus, family, and the discovery of God's grace at work throughout his life.

From being in a motorcycle gang, to being incarcerated, and then becoming a widely-know TV personality, Duane's life has been anything but ordinary. But, through every success and failure, the one constant has been his faith in God. For the first time, Daune is sharing how his faith has brought him through life's greatest difficulties, giving him renewed purpose and meaning.

In Nine Lives and Counting Duane offers fresh insight into some of his well-known life events, and he also gives you access to previously untold stories. You will hear about:

  • memories of the painful events that shaped Duane's childhood,
  • the impact of his relationship with his praying mother,
  • the surprising hope he found in prison,
  • triumphs and failures from his days as a single dad,
  • new previously untold stories of bounty hunting,
  • the tragic loss of his beloved wife Beth to cancer,
  • the unexpected blessing of finding his new wife Francie,
  • the work he and Francie are doing to preach and share about Jesus,
  • his relationship with his kids and family,
  • and much more.

With all the plot twists of a thrilling novel, Nine Lives and Counting is a real-life chronicle of God's amazing grace and restoration that have marked Duane's journey of faith. You will be inspired.

Redemption

I liked learning more about Dog. I watched his show for years, but now realize I knew very little about his spiritual life and his many troubles, trials and heartaches. Dog is a wonderful man with a big heart and the will to be a good disciple.

GOD is good all the time !

Laus Deo - one of the most beautiful and profound messages from the heart of a true man of God. thanks Dog for your time and courage to bless us with your story. As a born again Christian I look forward to being with you in God’s house in Heaven where we will have no more pain or tears or suffering.

I would feel regret if Dog didn’t write this one

My favorite part about the book was that it wasn’t six hundred pages. The book had the right amount of information I wanted to know (and didn’t want to know) about Dog the bounty hunter.

Here are some unserious quotes of Dog that enhanced the book:

“It built my faith. If God can get me sixty dollars, why not a horse.”

“So I stayed away from people with red hair in general”

“But the first thing I would do is offer [the criminal] a cigarette and tell them about Jesus”
