About a month ago, I adopted a shelter dog. She’s practically perfect. So when I heard that October is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, I knew I had to wrangle together a dog-dedicated post. Surprisingly, there are not many fiction books that focus on dogs. Therefore, this list is a conglomerate of books about, featuring, or generally including dogs. If anyone knows of any other good books about dogs, please let me know!

Go, Dog. Go!
by P.D. Eastman

A children’s classic. My parents read this book to my brother a lot when he was little. Dogs in cars, dogs at parties, dogs in trees – this book has it all.

Martha Speaks
by Susan Meddaugh

I was obsessed with this book in kindergarten! I often quoted it to my classmates, who had no idea what I was talking about.

Underwater Dogs
by Seth Casteel

The title says it…
