An interesting review. This also looks interesting. I loves animals and books about animals, so this should make for an enjoyable read. Kudos to the author for putting pen to paper on this story and congrats on #BOTD

It's great that Linda was able to adopt Pogo and trained her to be a therapy dog. I completely believe that animals are very bright. Heartwarming stories are nice ones to read and it's always nice when books are relatable to your life, which I'm glad this was the case for you here. Having fluid writing and low amount of errors are definitely keys things in a text. I'm sure the addition of the poems added a lot to the text, as well. Glad to know that this is good for all ages, and I'm happy you enjoyed it so much! Thanks for sharing!

Dogs are such smart animals. They intuitively know what is needed of them, and more often than not they rise to the occasion surpassing all expectations. I love that this book is filled with stories of people and how they relate to Pogo. Dogs can be such a comfort in so many ways.

Sounds like a sweet, charming, fun read. Dog-lovers, and animal lovers in general, will get lots of joy out of reading about the life of Pogo the dog. Thanks for the wonderful review!

I love books about animals, especially dogs. Dogs are great for comfort and are very reassuring in moments of duress. I look forward to reading about Pogo's involvement with patients, as he looks like a very sweet dog.

Pogo sounds like a great dog and Linda sounds like a great owner it appears as though the two of them helped a lot of people. This book sounds absolutely charming. Thanks for the review.

'Official Review: Pogo's Tale: The Life of a Therapy Dog by Linda Lutes' is meaningful and radiant with love and warmth of heart. Each and every word is contextual and that makes the reader very goal-oriented. It assures us about the merit of the author.

Linda's love for pets is quite admirable. She and her husband quickly adopt a dog, Pogo, following the death of their first dog. Life with Pogo is interesting as is seen from their many adventures.

Pets are an amazing creatures. Family life would be boring without them. Linda creates lasting memories with her dog Pogo. They are admirable. I can't imagine family life without at least a pet.
