Staff Reviews
This is the book I wrote for you
Instead of sniffing trees and posts and butts or eating litter
Too busy to chase the cat and chew
The leg of your new coffee table - so good
I wrote this book to show my love for you When you were out the house
I put my time to use and hope
My poetry and book sales will earn me Lots of bacon.

— From I Could Chew on ThisDescription
A New York Times bestseller? Oh, you know the dogs weren't going to let the cats get away with that! This canine companion to I Could Pee on This, the beloved volume of poems by cats, I Could Chew on This will have dog lovers laughing out loud. Doggie laureates not only chew on quite a lot of things, they also reveal their creativity, their hidden motives, and their eternal (and sometimes misguided) effervescence through such musings as "I Dropped a Ball," "I Lose My Mind When You Leave the House," and "Can You Smell That?" Accompanied throughout by portraits of the canine poets in all their magnificence, I Could Chew on This is a work of unbridled enthusiasm, insatiable appetite, and, yes, creative genius.
