Best-selling author Jon Katz, often called the heir to James Herriot, has earned a devoted following for his heartwarming tales of the dogs in his life. In this book Katz learns that living with four dogs on a rural New York farm is one thing. But what happens when you add a couple cows, four donkeys, a growing flock of sheep, a few hens, a temperamental rooster, and even Mother (a barn cat) to the mix?
