Editorial Review:

Product Description:
From the instant they spotted the forlorn puppy in the kennel, as she stared at them with her intense eyes, Cindy and Peter Martin knew she was the one for them. Almost immediately, Perth became a central part of the household, a dog for all dogs. Always left to run free, Perth became an indefatigable explorer, often gone for hours or entire days, but her infallible compass always brought her back home. From her adoption in upstate New York, her incredible survival in the wilderness of Vermont to her later adventures in the English countryside, Perth displayed the same devotion, unshakable trust, and unstinting love. An entertaining, beautifully written homage to a very special dog.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Perth is one lucky beagle
to make it to 21, despite it's owners stupidity. Also the poor neighbors that had to put up with Perth's comings and goings on their property, and the howling that they must of endured ---- unbelievable!!!!!




Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Perth
Peter and Cindy Martin bought Perth, a beautiful beagle at a well-known breeder in upstate New York. When they lived in Cazenovia, New York, Perth was allowed to run free and always would be regardless of the venue. When Peter got a job offer in Ohio, he took it, but Perth became a rotten devil. She was denied freedom in this boring atmosphere and soon got restless and snappy. This was why Peter and Cindy moved to Florida, where they were, "eager to embrace the more vivid subtropical climate ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Oh Perth, poor Perth...
(NOTE: I initially wrote this review for the paperback edition, but I felt it appropriate to post it here as well.)

Depending on your perspective, "A Dog Called Perth" is either heartwarming or heartbreaking. It's definitely a mixture of the two, but to some one may outweigh the other.

Unfortunately for my reading experience, the heartbreaking aspect overwhelmed the story.

Author Peter Martin and his wife, Cindy, obviously loved their beagle, Perth, to bits. They ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - indomitable dog, irresponsible owners!!!
I was so enraged by the complete ignorance of the dog owners in this book that I am writing my very first book review! Perth was obviously a very special dog and I enjoyed reading about her intelligence and spirit very much. However, the way she was so carelessly treated by those who claimed to love her, simply makes my blood boil! As someone else has already written, I, too, hesitated to read the ending of the book fearing exactly what happened at the end of her life. I finally did finish the book ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Poor Perth!
I thought I was the only one outraged by this book until I decided to look it up here and read the other reviews..I am more than half way through but simply cannot finish the book..it makes me too sad and too mad! And since another reviewer gave us the ending I REALLY cant finish it-I guess I am glad that I know what happened...so I dont have to read it myself.
Have these supposedly intelligent people ever heard about the responsibility one takes on when bringing a puppy into the family..it is at ... Read More
