... I'm pretty sure these are exactly the kind of books that make most people cry, especially if they like dogs.

Exactly!

[raspberryrain]

Yeah, I tend to cry at stories about pets, too.

Animal Farm got the biggest emotional reaction out of me out of any book I have ever read, so I feel you OP.

[(Anonymous)]

Ohshit, Boxer the horse.

[elaminator]

Now I want to read it!

On a similar note

The ending of "The Art of Racing in the Rain" (which also features a canine narrator) made me sob like a child while I was on a bus.

Someone gave me a copy of this book after we had to put one of our 14 year old black lab/dalmation mixes down a couple years ago, and holy fuck, I lay in bed and sobbed forever. Curse you for reminding me of its existence OP. :(

I haven't read that book but I don't think crying over a dog pov is anything to be ashamed about!
Depending on the situation I sympathize more with dogs than I do for adult humans. Every dog I've ever met is so sweet and friendly and the thought of them suffering in any way pains me.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh, that's weird. I know the author; he did our "bestselling author reads the road code" item for GISHWHES last year. \O/

[caerbannog]

Nope. No. Nope. Never going to read this no.

It's actually a really beautiful book, if you love dogs it's a must. Yes, it's sad at some points, but overall it's uplifting and it made me feel better about my 9-year old dog that left me too soon...it's an amazing book, imho.

[caerbannog]

Noooo I don't want to be sad and cry over dogs D: No no no noooo.

[11thdoctor]

This book is amazing, I hope my pups are happy wherever they are now.

I cried when reading "Thor" by Wayne Smith simply because of the canine POV. A fun werewolf story got far more emotional and personal because of how the dog perceived it. The end has a POV shift that is heartbreaking. 9/10 will read it again and again.

Okay but... does the dog die at the end?

[(Anonymous)]

This could be a spoiler, but I don't think it is since it's in the book's summary.

The point of the book is that the dog dies multiple times during the book, but each time he gets reincarnated and so he gets to live multiple lives -- searching for his one true purpose. It's a brilliantly written book, sometimes you forget it wasn't the actual dog who wrote it. It's beautiful and sad and funny, and in the end it all comes full circle. Definitely a must for anyone who loves dogs.

[(Anonymous)]

I totally cried while reading this too, OP!
