"There are more than 60 million pet dogs in the United States. Everybody loves a good story about animals, but I bet you didn't know there was a Dog Writers Association, and that each its members get together and choose a book they think told the best stories of all. 'The Dogs Who Grew Me' by Ann Pregosin recently won the Merial-Human-Animal Bond Award, and in it she tells the story of 'a life gloriously lived' with six dogs that have come into her life over the years and what each taught her: two cocker spaniels named Moppet and Daisy; Della, a sleek black Great Dane; Timber, a wolf hybrid; an iron-willed rottweiler named Boo; and Tyler, a Bernese mountain dog she calls her 'joy-of-living-dog.'"
