Summary
Albert Payson Terhune, perhaps best known for his book Lad, a Dog (later turned into a popular movie), was also a breeder of collies and a journalist. Some of his collie lines survive to this day.

His Dog is a story about Link Ferris who finds an injured dog on his way home one evening. Knowing nothing about dogs, Link nurses the dog back to health and the two form a bond such as only can be formed between human and canine. Unable to locate the collie's owner, Link christens his dog 'Chum' who becomes invaluable in tending to the daily needs of his meager farm.

Unknown to Ferris however, Chum's original owners have been looking for their lost collie, and the story finds Link torn between that which he knows is morally right and his love for what he believes has become his dog. (Summary by Roger Melin)

You will laugh. You will cry. A story of how our relationships with animals can be so profound as to be life changing. A great story.

A neat story about a man ans his dog with great descriptions of the collie and dogs in general. And wonderfully read by the narrator. He changes voices and reads lively.

I have long been a fan of Albert Payson Terhune and was delighted to find a title I had not read before. It took me a bit to warm up to the narrator but once we learn more about the main character, the narration was a good fit for the book. I greatly enjoyed the book.

It was predictable and obviously written by a dog lover. Nonetheless, I still loved it. Would recommend to anyone who has ever had a dog as a best friend.
