Can a married couple and two sporty dogs live happily ever after in a double bed? How can super spirited dogs be safely restrained? And, most importantly, might energetic puppies be the true secret to human weight loss? These and many other furry phenomena are explored with humor, heart, and some psychological insight by Dr. Beryl Jupiter in The Puppy Diet and Other Endearing Family Dog Tails. This lighthearted and loving look at dog socialization charts her experiences in her own household of faithful family dogs, usually two at a time, and finds time and again that all the puppy chasing, paw wiping, and pooper-scooping was worth every antic moment. In the first whimsical wag of her tail, or tale as the case may be, Dr. Jupiter shares how her own diet struggles as a midlife woman coincided with an extra weight-loss boost: the high-energy “puppercise” required to raise and socialize a boisterous English springer spaniel puppy. From there, in a rollicking roundup of topical chapters on dog ownership, the author weaves the funny and soulful stories of life with her family dogs over several decades. Told with humor and pathos, these poignant dog portraits detail the progression and personalities of the family’s six dogs, two Irish setters and four springer spaniels, as well as vignettes of the four family members with whom her dogs’ lives have been intimately intertwined.jupiter also offers a wry take on tennis ball obsession, chow time, yucky behaviors, dog caretakers, grooming, and many more canine considerations that will likely resonate with any dog owner. At the same time, this tenderhearted book illuminates the meaningful role that dogs can play in buoying the human spirit during difficult times, and how an owner’s efforts are always tremendously rewarded. Those devoted to the dogs in their lives will find a perfect companion in The Puppy Diet and Other Endearing Family Dog Tails, which is sure to be dog-eared from repeated readings!
