The Dog Tales Collection Coloring Book was designed to provide children an activity to help children stay safe while they have to stay at home. Pictures in the coloring book come from books within the Dog Tales Collection which include: Do Bad Dogs Get Cancer?; Don’t Say Good Bye Just Say See You!; The Road to recovery is Paved with Dog Treats!: Porsche Bella’s Forever Home: No Treats for Bullies!: When A Virus Takes Over the World; and The Power of Kindness and treats!. Children can color the pages based upon the books, or they can use their own creativity.

The Dog Tales Collection, developed by Patricia A. Brill, PhD, is the first collection of books written to help parents start a conversation with their child regarding issues or concerns they may have with their pet. These books help children better understand what happens when their pet or a loved one has cancer; has to undergo surgery, has to stay overnight at the hospital, is bullied, or even dies. These books not only speak to the issues they have with their pets but can also teach children about issues of life, illness, or diversity within their own lives.
