3.0

I received a free e-copy of this book from the publishers/author via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Dogtology is a humorous look into the curious lives of dog lovers, and how everything for them will always revolve around their dog and how interesting human behavior can change once someone admits they are a dogtologist.

I really liked this at the start, the first half was funny and kept my interest. I defintiely had some laugh out loud moments and as a very proud and open dogtologist, I did see myself reflected in some of the funny musings around dog owners/lovers/enthusiasts. After a while though I got a bit bored and weary of the book, as it did end up being a little bit repetitive. I do think this could have been about 50 pages shorter for what it is which is just a funny book about dog lovers. I do think some of the language and references used were very US-focused which didn't relate as well for dog lovers outside of the States.

This is a fun book to flick through and have on your shelf to pick up now and again but not one to be taken seriously.
