Dogtripping contains a lot of great words--but my favorite is the one that David Rosenfelt refuses to write. He does not know the meaning of 'unadoptable.' His dedication to dog rescue infuses every page with life's greatest lessons, of love and caring., "An uplifting story that exemplifies the compassion and dedication which are at the heart of the selflessness, serious work, and vital importance of rescue, told with humor and a refreshing sense of self-deprecation."-Larry Levin, New York Times bestselling author of Oogy: The Dog Only A Family Could Love "Dogtripping is a hoot! Laugh out loud funny, heartfelt and courageous, David Rosenfelt penned a gleefully sideways addition to the adventure travel canon."--Steven Kotler, bestselling author of A Small Furry Prayer and Abundance " Dogtripping is an affectionate and witty journey."-Luis Carlos Montalván, New York Times bestselling author of  Until Tuesday "Dogtripping contains a lot of great words-but my favorite is the one that David Rosenfelt refuses to write.

Laugh out loud funny, heartfelt and courageous, David Rosenfelt penned a gleefully sideways addition to the adventure travel canon., Fans of the Carpenter novels will recognize the author's familiar writing style: relaxed and lightly funny, but serious when the moment calls for it...Spirited and absolutely absorbing reading for fans of canine capers--both fictional and otherwise., "When was the last time you laughed out loud? When is the last time you cried tears of genuine sadness? When was the last time you did both while reading a 260-page memoir?  Dogtripping is a delightful romp through [the] adventures - and misadventures - of running a dog rescue...As a dog lover, it's hard to know whether his stories will resonate with those less fond of his furry four-legged friends, but because Rosenfelt very well could be the funniest American author alive today, it's certainly worth a try. He's charming, likable, self-deprecating, self-aware and utterly hysterical.

Synopsis
David Rosenfelt's Dogtripping is moving and funny account of a cross-country move from California to Maine, and the beginnings of a dog rescue foundation When mystery writer David Rosenfelt and his family moved from Southern California to Maine, he thought he had prepared for everything. They had mapped the route, brought three GPSs for backup, as well as refrigerators full of food, and stoves and microwaves on which to cook them. But traveling with twenty-five dogs turned out to be a bigger ordeal than he anticipated, despite the RVs, the extra kibble, volunteers (including a few readers), and camping equipment. Rosenfelt recounts the adventure of moving his animal companions across the United States with humor and warmth, and tells the tale of how he and his wife became passionate foster parents for rescue dogs, culminating in the creation of the Tara Foundation and successfully placing several thousand dogs with loving families.

    Had difficulties with receiving item due to it needing a signature and package repeatedly attempted delivery during hours when most people are at work. Seller was very communicative and accommodating. Item was as described. It was packaged extremely well, and is of a great value.

    Whoever packed this Sony digital Radio/Tape./5 cd player system deserves a medal. It even made it through the notorious FEDEX system in perfect condition! The unit came on time in a huge cardboard box with the 3 components (speakers plus player) each thickly wrapped in bubble wrap. The wrap probably cost more than the shipping. The unit, advertised as "Tested working," plays perfectly! Goodwillvsp gets the highest rating for all aspects of this sale. Thank you, 5 STAR seller!!

    I am a fan of the authors fiction books and his style of writing. I am also a dog owner and a dog enthusiast. So it was not hard for me to like this book. The author and his wife are a wee bit "nuts" about dogs. The story is laced with short little storys about some of their individual dogs. Its pretty hard to "not like" this couple and this book IF you like dogs.
