It's the truck that seems to be following Birdie and the bad feeling on the back of her neck.When Birdie and Bowser start digging into the mystery, not even Bowser's powerful sniffer can smell just how menacing the threat is. And when the danger comes straight for Birdie, Bowser knows it up to him to sic 'em.

This book was wonderful. Spencer Quinn told an engaginging story, but James Frangione's narration brought it to delightful, realistic life! Of course dogs talk--and think--like that! He nailed it! I listened to this children's book as an adult and it has been my favorite read of the summer. Now to purchase it for my 11year old great neice--who just rescued Max.

I listen to my audio books while walking my dogs at the dog park. The book was enjoyable, held my attention, and made me wonder what my dogs are thinking! I will get the sequel soon. Even though I'm an adult, I felt it was a great book, and recommend it for all ages!

Funny story since the dog is narrator. Cute book for kids. Main character is 11 years old. Book reader did a great job!

Great performance by the narrator, I am an adult and felt that the narrator captured the spirit of Bouser. The book was written for children - teenagers which I felt would keep their attention all the while taking them on a suspenseful journey. Great job!

As a grandma I really enjoyed this book Think the reader makes you see all even to dog drool Neat mystery for a cool 11 year old and an awesome dog

I thought the book was hackney and the ending abrupt. I think there was room for more storyline development. I.e. the mom, the dad, the whole striker story and birdie becoming more of sleuth. What was the point of looking for the treasure if only end up throwing the necklace to the alligator, sorry for giving to much away.

Humor, suspense, a wonderful dog, and good human characters, over all a fun book for kids. I also liked the details and information brought about from the setting (swamp country, Louisiana). The narrator was also good.

I'm a sucker for all of Spencer Quinn's books. Actually any book where a dog is a main character but in most the dog always dies in the end. That's one of the reasons I love Quinn's books, the dog always survives for the sequel. It isn't the only reason, his writing is side-splitting funny and surprisingly suspenseful . His books are not as predictable as you would expect them to be. It isn't deep intense literature and isn't suppose to be but it's well written, humorous and a fun read. I thoroughly enjoyed Woof and am waiting patiently for the second in this series Arf

This was such a fun book - and I am not a lover of animal stories! It was an engaging and even endearing little mystery. The dog's point of view is really quite funny - I found myself laughing out loud. I hope to share this story with my niece when we go on a road trip.
