The Richest Dog in Town is a collection of humorous short stories about life from the dog's point of view and details a dog's struggle to compete with humans in the business world. Once a homeless dog, Hobo has finally found a forever home and a family he can call his own. His search for a secure source of additional steaks soon expands to a desire of riches and leads to success as well as conflict. At times, he makes fun of quandaries humans create for themselves and suggests ways to avoid them or to recover from them. Amid his flights of fancy, Hobo roots for his fellow dogs, cats and other small animals to protect and improve their welfare and raise their standing in society.
