5 out of 5 stars Great book   November 17, 2008
I loved Merle's Door. It was well written book on a relationship between man and dog. A tear jerker, but one of my favorites.


2 out of 5 stars Merles Door   November 13, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

First let me say that many more enjoyed this book than are critical.
I found it to have a large amount of " fill" does it really need 200 annotations? do we really have to hear about Ted's sexual encounters and world travels? I began to feel that he was more interested in telling about himself than Merle. I kept thinking that we are looking at a 50 year old far left liberal into new age religion etc. IE An old Hippy.

There are many parts related to Merle's adventures that are interesting, but I do not really consider this book memorable. I purchase extra copies of memorable books to share with my friends. In do not plan to purchase any additional copies of this one, and likely will not even pass it on for others to read.

This did not compare to "The art of Racing in the Rain." Bernie Doran



5 out of 5 stars Must Read for Dog Lovers   November 13, 2008
This book is a must read for anyone who has loved a dog. It is a beautiful book. If you have read Marley and Me....you will really like this book as well. Highly recommend for all dog lovers.


5 out of 5 stars A book for your book club.   November 12, 2008
I picked this book for my book club here in Wyoming and it was a great choice. This book touched everyone and all admitted to using a lot of kleenex at the end! Don't miss this one. Patti


5 out of 5 stars Loved this book   November 9, 2008
The book, Merle's Door: Lessons from a Freethinking Dog, is a must for anyone who has ever had a close relationship with a dog, or loves the country. The book merges the love of the dog companionship with snippets of basic research on animal behavior, specifically canine. This method of weaving diciplines meets both the need for story as well as the knowledge craved by the learned person. It makes one want to go to Kelly to find the author and shake his hand.
