Chet, the wise and lovable canine narrator of Dog on It, and Bernie, a down-on-his-luck private investigator, are quick to take a new case involving a frantic mother searching for her teenage daughter. This well-behaved and gifted student may or may not have been kidnapped, but she has definitely gotten mixed up with some very unsavory characters. With Chet’s highly trained nose leading the way, their hunt for clues takes them into the desert to biker bars and other exotic locales—until the bad guys try to turn the tables and the resourceful duo lands in the paws of peril.
Despite the fact that the inside cover says to return to WPX Energy, I bought this book at a library sale.

This was a fun read. I enjoyed how Chet narrated the book, describing how things smelled and wandering off into his doggy thoughts. There was indeed a great deal of peril, but Chet and Bernie save the day!
Thank you so much rythmbiscuit for sending this all the way from Colorado - it does indeed look like a fun read :)
A very entertaining, fun read.
I really liked that the story is written from the dogs point of view, not a talking dog fortunately, just a reasonably normal doggy dog, which does "sort of normal" dog things, while helping out Bernie the PI.

Happy reading!

This book has a lot of miles behind it... Arrived to Northern Europe today, safe and sound. Looking forward to get to know Chet. Thank you also for the card and magnetic bookmark.
I think one book is enough Chet and Bernie for me... At times the story was soooo slow, not quite believable and in the end there was a rush to get it finished and done with - or so it felt.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
On my evening walk with Doggy Dearest I left the book outside "Fashion Dog" dog salon.
Pic: Doggy Dearest received her diploma of International Beauty Champion from the FCI (Federation Cynologique Internationale) a few weeks ago. She has been retired from shows since Dec 2017, but I had forgotten to send her application for the title until now... She never was a top show dog, but decent enough to become a champion of six countries, when I chose shows where I knew competition would be meagre 😉.
Dear New Reader,
It would be great to hear where you found the book and what you thought about it, if you read it. It has travelled a lot of miles.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
As there were no takers outside the groomer's I took the book to the dog park of Myllykallio and left it on a bench there. Come Monday, the eager-beaver janitor could have swept the book from outside the dog salon before customers began to arrive. At least everybody who goes to the dog park has a dog...
