loved this story

Absolutely loved. As a daughter of a police k9 officer this book touched my heart and gave me chills with the realistic nature of the words to describe scenes and emotions.

A K9 for the ages

This is a story for all dog lovers and any K9 handler. It is a story where a handler is told the secret of using a K9 and finally learns to use it. Brag started out to be a beloved family dog but when death hits the house Brag was lovingly given a new purpose in life, to be a police K9 and a great one at that. This book also touches on other the K9's in the unit. But as handler and K9 become a team the handler struggles over what he would do if he ever had to send Brag into a potentially dangerous situation, after all they are partners now, with the greatest of bonds.

Great story

This was a great story of a handler, his dog, and the sacrifices officers take especially in a specialty unit. I highly recommend this book.

Excellent depiction of partnering with a K9

Werewolf by David Alton Hedges is an excellent heartfelt true story about an exceptional but a bit scary police dog. The dog's real name was Brag, but quickly got the nickname “Werewolf” by fellow officers. Brag and his partner Officer Hedges were reluctant to get too attached to one another but by mutual respect and many successful cases, an unbreakable bond developed. What a great story. I feel I got a lot more out of the audio than I would have from the book but that could be just me. The narration was done very well you could feel the frustration of a moment and the elation of an accomplishment. That was why I like an audio if done well The insights of working with a K9 and learning to trust each other were very interesting and informative. I would recommend this book to all.

Werewolf

I loved this book! I felt like I was living everyday with Brag and his handler. I felt the heartwrenching heart break when Brag died but happy that he survived a long career as a police k-9 and was able to be happy and content as uncle Brag. The author is correct there will never be another Brag but he was also very blessed and lucky to have such a wonderful amazing best friend!

Beautifully written story about an amazing friendship and a life of service

Full disclosure: I am a cop who worked with Brag and his human partner. That being said, I loved this book, period. I remember many of the cases and know all the locations. I enjoyed hearing about them from the perspective of the K-9 handler. What I loved most is Officer Hedges’ writing and the beautiful way he describes the relationship and the love for each other that he and Brag shared. He also absolutely nails it when describing the life of a police officer and the culture within the department. Well done my friend and thank you!

BRAG! Worth the listen!

If you love dogs, especially k9 police dogs, you will love it! Interesting. It was like story after story.

Great Book!

I really enjoyed this book called Werewolf! It follows the story of David, a police officer and his police K9 named Brag. The book details their time together and goes through phases from training to on duty. It was an interesting story and gave a behind the scenes look at the life of a working dog! If you like dogs then you will enjoy this book! I also liked the voice narrator of the audiobook!
