The Very Very Very Long Dog by Julia Patton

This is a very cute story about a dachshund.  He's a sweet happy fellow who lives in a bookstore and reads a book as he eats his meals.  He also likes to go for walks...

Sourcebooks/Jabberwocky let me read this book for review (thank you).  It will be published December 5th.

Wiener dogs are well-known as long dogs with short legs.  That doesn't do anything to slow down their enthusiastic lives.  His problem appears when he goes on walks.  He doesn't realize how long he is.

When he finds the trouble he's caused he even goes and bites the offending animal.  He's quite to surprised to find it's his own rear end!

His handlers go back to the library and start reading books for solutions.  They find one.  And then they can go walks safely.  Everybody's happy now...
