The Perfect Breed (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781922588265)

"There are so many breeds we could choose from, you see.

There'll be one right for us, I know you'll agree.

I know all about them; we've got lots of choice!"

"Go on, then," said Mum, in her most patient voice.

Sam is desperate to get a dog.

He's not silly, though - no way! - and he isn't one to beg and plead. No; he's done his research on this. In fact, Sam has found a variety of breeds, each with their own skills and traits that would best suit his family, from labradors to kelpies, pugs to Bernese mountain dogs, golden retrievers to greyhounds.

Sam is very persuasive, but... will he manage to find the perfect breed of dog for his family?
