Just Labs
by Steven S. SmithFrom the book jacket: "They'll buck freezing, four-foot waves for a quarter-mile to make a retrieve," says author Steve Smith of Labs, "and that night by the fire, lie with their favorite stuffed bunny and woof and arf in their sleep. They'll stand be tween you and a stranger at the door, hackles raised, rumbling a warning only a fool would ignore, and dare danger to enter; two hours later, they'll be yapping at the neighbor kids, trying to worm their way into a game of touch football. If we have to travel away overnight, we know those we love are guarded, safe and protect ed, by a canine radar installation who will patrol the house, count noses, and sleep lightly against the perils of darkness."
