I thought this book was ok,but it not that interestesting.It needed to have even more about each dog. I like the dog that he found when he was out hunting. It was a mystery dog.I didn't like the ending for each dog. Some weren't very good.

My Life in Dog Years is a sad put cheerful book. In this book, Gary Paulsen tells stories about impartant dogs in his life. A life saving dog, the smartest dog, and a devoted dog are some of the many dogs he will talk about. you have to read this book. it took me 1 day to read this.

i do not like how he tried to fit like twelve dogs all into one book. He (Gary Paulsen) should have have a seperate book for "Josh" if he thought he was the best one....

I never really liked dogs, but I loved this book. Each dog was different, and that's what I like. Variety.

This was an ok book. It wasn't my favorite of the BOB books so far, but it was pretty interesting how it told how he met each dog and there adventures together.
