Many dogs have human owners. Not this dog. He fetches his own slippers, curls up at his own feet, and gives himself a good scratch. But there is one spot, in the middle of his back, that he just can't reach. So one day, he lets a human scratch it. And the poor little fella follows him home. What can the dog do but get a leash to lead the guy around with? Dog lovers of all ages will revel in the humorous role-reversal as this dog teaches his human all the skills he needs to be a faithful companion.

Recenzii
Stein's role reversal is deliciously fun, and what makes it sing is the bulldog's confiding tone, and the way Stein telegraphs a range of emotions--exasperation, resignation, and pure joy--with a few bold lines.
--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
An independent dog teaches his human a few tricks in this amusing role reversal. ... Appealing pen, ink and watercolor illustrations, done in a primary pastel palette, convey the dog's sassy, ultimately warm personality. The artist's use of marker is reminiscent of a Chinese brush painting--where each stroke skillfully conveys an energy or intention about the character or setting. Fresh and lively, Stein infuses each spread with spontaneity. A charming person-as-pet story that will leave dog lovers chuckling.
--Kirkus Reviews
It's an oft-made joke: "Who is the person in this relationship and who is the pet?" Stein makes amusing, adorable hay from this idea is this tale of an independent doggie who doesn't need a person--well, not at first. ... Stein's pen, marker, and watercolor figures are endearingly slapdash and exude warmth; when the dog says, "I've grown attached to the little fella," the duo's affection for each other is palpable. A fitting celebration of opinionated pups everywhere.
