Copper: A Dog's Life

With more stories to tell than you could count on the pads of one paw, this curly-tailed, shaggy-bearded mongrel led a truly astonishing life. Famed for his remarkable wanderlust, canine curiosity took him all over the place, sometimes traveling on buses with his friend Jessie the cat, often stopping off at his favorite bars, or chasing unsuspecting joggers in the park—a hobby which nearly ended his life. In this delightful book, Copper tells us of his astounding adventures with the finest of tail-wagging wisdom. He sniffs out all the important things in life: the comings and goings, the loves and losses—and, of course, what it's like to live in high society. Sometimes cheeky, most of the time charming, but always cherished, Copper's story is by turns funny and moving, the tale of a real canine hero.
