Darwin’s Rules

When a little mongrel pup escapes from The Big Man’s yard one night and runs away from the horrors of a dog fighting ring, he has no idea that he’s about to make a huge difference in the life of his beloved Mom who adopts him.

Using his unique wisdom and all the tricks of a Good Dog, he gently guides her through the pitfalls of middle-aged dating, the loneliness of sending her children out into the world, and finally nudges her back into love. The day when he’s helping Mom make the grass short just before she brings home a new husband from the convenience store is one of the best memories of his life story that he shares through a dog’s perspective. BobDog is a stand-up guy, sort of a beagle type of person, straightforward and honest, and before long he loves him too.

If you’ve ever loved a dog, you’ll understand the ways a furry fellow has to look at life to make his people happy again. And if this dog’s tale doesn’t make you smile, then you probably should stick with a goldfish for a pet.
