Publisher Description

"One Good Dog is a wonderful novel: a moving, tender, and brilliantly crafted story about two fighters—one a man, one a dog— hoping to leave the fight behind, who ultimately find their salvation in each other. Susan Wilson's clear and unflinching style is perfectly suited for her story that strips away the trappings and toys we all hide behind, and exposes our essential need to give and accept love in order to thrive."—Garth Stein, New York Times bestselling author of The Art of Racing in the Rain Adam March is a self-made "Master of the Universe." He has it all: the beautiful wife, the high-powered job, the glittering circle of friends. But there is a price to be paid for all these trappings, and the pressure is mounting—until the day Adam makes a fatal mistake. His assistant leaves him a message with three words:your sister called. What no one knows is that Adam's sister has been missing for decades. That she represents the excruciatingly painful past he has left behind. And that her absence has secretly tormented him all these years. When his assistant brushes off his request for an explanation in favor of her more pressing personal call, Adam loses it. And all hell breaks loose. Adam is escorted from the building. He loses his job. He loses his wife. He loses the life he's worked so hard to achieve. He doesn't believe it is possible to sink any lower when he is assigned to work in a soup kitchen as a form of community service. But unbeknownst to Adam, this is where his life will intersect with Chance. Chance is a mixed breed Pit Bull. He's been born and raised to fight and seldom leaves the dirty basement where he is kept between fights. But Chance is not a victim or a monster. It is Chance's unique spirit that helps him escape and puts him in the path of Adam. What transpires is the story of one man, one dog, and how they save each other—in ways they never could have expected.

"I enjoyed this book. My initial impression was one of mediocre writing but as I stuck with it I was drawn into the story. As a veterinarian and the owner of a rescued pit bull I particularly enjoyed the chapters written from the dog's perspective. As with all animal stories more than one tear was shed during the reading of this book. The end felt somewhat rushed, a little chaotic and abrupt but brought relief and closure to a good story."

Quotes

  • “One Good Dog is a wonderful novel: a moving, tender, and brilliantly crafted story about two fighters--one a man, one a dog--hoping to leave the fight behind, who ultimately find their salvation in each other. Susan Wilson's clear and unflinching style is perfectly suited for her story that strips away the trappings and toys we all hide behind, and exposes our essential need to give and accept love in order to thrive.

    — Garth Stein, New York Times bestselling author of The Art of Racing in the Rain
  • Working and writing with Cesar Millan has taught me that no dog is unredeemable, no matter how horrendous its past. Susan Wilson's evocative and deeply moving novel reminds us that even the most unlikely human can also find redemption, sometimes, with a little help from a canine friend.

    — Melissa Jo Peltier, New York Times bestselling co-author of Cesar’s Way
  • One Good Dog will make you cry, will make you laugh, will make you feel things more than you thought possible--and it will make you believe in second chances.

    — Augusten Burroughs
  • One Good Dog is a wonderful novel of healing and redemption. Chance, the four-legged healer and redeemer, will linger in your mind long after the story is done.

    — Spencer Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of Dog On It
  • ONE GOOD DOG EQUALS ONE GREAT BOOK!

    — Rita Mae Brown
  • Anybody who has ever loved a dog - or been "a pack of two," as Chance so aptly puts it - will love One Good Dog. This is the moving story of Adam March, a man who loses everything only to find something much greater, and it reminds us that it's animals that make us our most fully human. I hope Susan Wilson sits and stays - forever.

    — Lisa Scottoline
  • Nowhere can we see the potential for our own redemption more clearly than in the eyes of our dog. Susan Wilson illustrates this truth poignantly and beautifully in this story of second chances.

    — Tami Hoag
  • One Good Dog shows how animals teach us everything about hope, healing, and unconditional love. One Good Dog is a terrific book that held me from beginning to end!

    — Iris Johansen
  • One Good Dog tells the eloquent truth about a brave-hearted dog and a broken-hearted man, the mystical ways they rescue each other. I was so moved by Susan Wilson's writing: her understanding of the lost, in the language of the wild.

    — Luanne Rice

    " I'll be honest...starts off a little slow...let me rephrase - Adam March (main human character) is a little (or a lot) hard to like at the beginning...so his part was a little slow to me. The chapters in the view from Chance were great. So glad I stuck through it...was a great work of dog fiction...and yes, you if you are a dog lover, promise you'll be sobbing at the end. Well worth the read! "

    " 3.5 Stars.. This book is a similar theme to The Art of Racing in the Rain, but didn't pull me in until about halfway through the book. The dog Enzo in Racing in the rain is better developed, and Adam, the protagonist is really not likable until well into the book. It does get better if you are willing to stick with it! "

    " This was the first book I read from a dog's point of view & it is my absolute favorite! I am partial to this book mainly, I think, because I own a pitbull mix & know quite well the generalized reputation of these dogs. I loved the story of these two lost souls finding each other & how both of their lives changed so dramatically because of it. Would recommend it to dog lovers & not. "

    " This book started off slow for me and it was kind of frustrating waiting for the main character and the dog to finally find each other. But it really picked up and I planned on rating this book a 4 all the way until the end and then something happened that I thought was totally unnecessary and it still haunts me when I see the cover of this book. If I could rate this book by sections I would give the beginning a 3, the middle a 5 and the end a 2. The book actually had a good ending but that one part just really messed me up and I couldn't get over it. "
