Dog Training the American Male: A Novel Audiobook

Meet Dr. Nancy Beach, a relationship counselor who hosts a local radio show called Love’s a Beach. One problem: the relationship guru can’t seem to make her own relationships work, sending her credibility and ratings into the toilet.

Meet Jacob Cope, a walking thesaurus of phobias, a Lehman Brothers casualty who’s lost his job and swagger and now yearns to be a ventriloquist.

When Nancy and Jacob are set up on a blind date and hit it off, their siblings, desperate to be rid of them, encourage the young couple to move in together. When the honeymoon stage abruptly ends, Jacob attempts to mend the fence by adopting a dog, a big dog, and Nancy flips out—until she realizes the dog trainer’s techniques can be used to housebreak Jacob and save her radio career.

“A riotous romp through relationships of the young, the old, and the restless…Comedic newcomer L. A. Knight offers a fresh farce replete with a cast of well-drawn characters, fast-paced wit, and merging cinematic story lines that triumph as a novel but would feel equally right on a London stage, as a Netflix original, or in a theater near you. Dog Training is a new look at age-old male-female quandaries but also a book for mature readers that will find more than one male looking at himself—and suddenly realizing why he’s so eager to help with the dishes.”
