How to Walk a Dog cover

'The book of the year. THE book on dogs. And people.' Andrew Dickens, Newstalk ZB

Mike White began walking his SPCA-rescue huntaway, Cooper, at Wellington's dog parks ten years ago, and since then has become part of a remarkable community of people and their pets.

Written with wit, wisdom and heartbreaking poignancy, How to Walk a Dog is a story anyone who has ever owned or loved a dog will relate to. You will laugh, you will cry, and you will learn some of the secrets of living with a dog.

Illustrated with drawings from acclaimed cartoonist Sharon Murdoch.

Mike White, for decades one of the country's most persuasive journalists, makes a case here as irrefutable as it is moving: throw a stick, make a dog happy, be a better person. He has convinced me. -- Vincent O'Sullivan
This wryly affectionate portrait of dogs and their people is a tail-thumpingly delightful read. -- Jane Clifton
So charming and funny and sincere - this is dog lit at its best. -- Steve Braunias
