Synopsis

David Rosenfelt's loyal followers of the Andy Carpenter series are familiar with Tara, the golden retriever sidekick. Many also got to know Tara from Dogtripping, David's tales about becoming a slightly nutty dog rescuer and the dog that started it all. Here, finally, is a book all about the inspirational canine who taught David everything he knows. Well, he did know how to tie his shoes before he met and came to love Tara, but that's about it. Through Tara, David learned about dating, about being able to share his emotions, and also about everyday stuff like who gets to use the pillow if several dogs are sleeping in your bed (clue: It's not the human) and why random barking will never be something that can be eliminated. Lessons From Tarais infused with David's trademark wry and self-deprecating sense of humor, and will move readers to tears and laughter.

Goodreads review by Stephen on May 19, 2022

Great book, now joining my small list of favorite dog books out of the approximately 300 i have read so. First, there is a lot of humor in the book. I found myself laughing out loud often. Second, he rescues dogs. People who do that are saints in my mind, more so in the numbers he rescues. The descrip......more

Goodreads review by Mayda on May 09, 2019

I started reading this book the afternoon we got back from the vet’s after euthanizing our 13-year-old dog. The vet agreed with us that it was time to let him go. In this book, David Rosenfelt talks about the Tara Foundation and the very many dogs he and his wife Debbie have rescued, most of whom we......more
