A hilarious noir detective romp . . . Full of slapstick visual gags and great wordplay, you'll soon develop a soft spot for these two lovable detectives!Kirk Bergman and Duncan McBoo are pedigree police: the finest canine cops in all Muttropolis. And they're never short of work. The Golden Bone of Alexandria has been stolen by malevolent mongrels and our doggy duo are the perfect pooches to take on the case . . . CRIMINALS BEWARE: Bergman and McBoo are on your tail!

Definitely First-Class * Paul Gravett *
It is a brilliant homage to the classic noir detective movies, and pretty much every cop buddy movie going and is laced throughout with snappy dialogue and one-liners that will make you laugh out loud * Book Zone for Boys *
Sequential narrative (comic book panels to you and me) can offer more visual possibilities than straightforward writing and Dave Shelton makes full use of the form . . . This hairy whodunnit will thrill children from 5 - 99. Go fetch! * Emma Byrne Inis *
The plots are goofy, the laughs are there and writer/artist Dave Shelton has got more expression out of his characters than I thought possible. Let's hope we see more of the Muttropolis duo in the future * Bear Alley *
A hilarious noir detective romp ... Full of slapstick visual gags and great wordplay, you'll soon develop a soft spot for these two lovable detectives * Daniel Hahn The Ultimate Book Guide *
