Fun short story

Love Chet and Bernie, and this short story was no exception!! The narration is also good.

Too cute for words...really

This was the second very short story from this series that I just recently read. Thankfully, I think I read them in the right order. That first one was listed as book # 0.1 and this book is # 0.3. Regardless, these two stories are the sort of "prequels" that give us a glimpse into exactly how Bernie and Chet got together.

It is truly hard not to completely fall in love with Chet immediately (he's the dog). He has that perfect balance of being cute, a bit of a smart aleck and just being so adorable as he tries to equate the human words he hears to things that he can understand in his dog world. Obviously, he tends to get things completely wrong a lot of the time, but to make it even cuter - he has a tremendous heart.

I have to say, from the little I've read, I would like to come back to this series and find out more about just how much trouble these two can get up to.

Sounds fun, right?

The Partys Over!

Love All The Chet and Bernie stories!!!!! The Only GREAT stories EVER written and told by the dog. We All are in LOVE with CHET!!
PLEASE never take him from us!

Short Funny Dog Detective Story

If you read "Short Funny Dog Detective Story" and think - Oh that might be nice, you will likely enjoy this book. If you think "Ee gads" you should likely skip it. I modestly enjoyed it. This is not quite a kids book (as it has slight adult humor) but you have to enjoy the story from the various humorously limited dog perspectives.

The narration is great (maybe the best part).

Short but fun

I love all of the Chet and Bernie stories even this short one. But more is better.

Porche surprise!

Nothing like a Chet the Jet & his pal Bernie Little of the Little Detective Agency adventure to put a smile on my face. And this novella was no exception. Bernie had just picked up another older model Porche (his favorite make of car) with Chet riding shotgun. Shortly after, a woman pays him a visit wanting him to take her case. She wants Bernie to find out if her boyfriend is cheating on her. Not really wanting the case, Bernie finally agrees & he & Chet start investigating. To make a short story short, the ending is quite humorous even if a bit unexpected. A great read!!

audible

loved it. all his books r great. just wish they were all on audible. will get them all

Chet is always worth some chuckles

If you’ve never read a Chet and Bernie book, you can start with Quinn’s short stories about them as an introduction. My other favorite is A Cat Was Involved, which tells a little bit more about why Chet was a last-minute washout at K-9 school (Chet refers to this incident a lot in the books, but usually can’t remember the details).

And of course, there are the Chet and Bernie fans out there who hate waiting for the next book - you will enjoy the short stories just as well!

Highly recommended.

Solved the problem.

This story solves the problem I had with "A Cat Was Involved", namely that Leda and Bernie were already split up when Chet and Bernie hooked up.

Guess I shoulda listened to this one first....

How can you not love Bernie and Chet the Jet?

This is a Bernie and Chet mystery as they all are. I remember when the first of the series came out. So much fun! Different than other stories that are out they are all seen and told from the dog, Chet's point of view. But as much as I loved the story i found out they needed space and time between them to enjoy fully and not be annoyed at much of the same ol' same ol' jokes and one liners of Chet's. So i spaced them out and happy I did that & not just just give up on the series. Given enough space the jokes are funny again. Nothing is ever like the first but I find these are good to cleanse my mind between books with too many curse words and too much sex not enough plot! Chet gives a nice clean family enjoyable story. Hard to find these days! The narrator Jim Frangione is a perfect Chet. He gives him a great voice not a dopey animal character voice as other might when voicing for a dog. JF has been a favorite of mine for a very long time I can't think of anything I didn't like that he read for. Definitely one of those narrators that I choose the story BECAUSE he is reading it! He does the popular Vampire series of JD Ward. Another series he has become THE VOICE for! Would be hard to switch him out of it. I would go to print of the series of he no longer was the narrator.
If you're looking for a fun time that isn't dumbed down then give Bernie
and Chet a try. Really enjoyable full of laugh out loud moments!
