Review

Praise for the Andy Carpenter""series:
"Warmhearted, satisfyingly inventive and almost too clever for its own good."
"--Kirkus Reviews "on "Heart of a Killer"

"Heartwarming to dog lovers, absorbing to fans of courtroom byplay." "--Kirkus Reviews "on "One Dog Night"

"Excellent . . . All will marvel at the way Rosenfelt builds suspense." "--Publishers Weekly "(starred) on "On Borrowed Time"

"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."--Kim Kavin, author of "Little Boy Blue"

"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 Montalvan, "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.
