Book ~ "The Dog and I" - Roy MacGregor (2006)

From Chapters.ca ~ From Roy MacGregor, comes this entertaining collection of essays on man’s best friend. Through his earliest moments of dog ownership, when he bundled his new puppy, Cindy, into his oversized, hand-knitted hockey sweater, to a present-day magical winter’s walk in the woods with Willow, MacGregor captures the joys, the mysteries, and the occasional if inevitable heartbreak of a lifetime with dogs. Whether it’s a hilarious guided tour through the puppy brain or the poignant final days shared with a long-lived friend—and everything in between, including some commentary on the foibles of modern dog madness—The Dog and I is an homage to a life of unsurpassed companionship and unconditional love.

A delightful collection of the author's stories about the dogs he has had over the years. Definitely a book all dog lovers should read.
