I enjoy reading books about animals, business books and how to be happy(ier) in life ... this book is a combination of all three. And how could I resist with the picture of Sadie on the cover?
Scott MacDonald is a retired CEO and had a career working on commercial real estate projects throughout the world. Sadie is his rescue dog. Together they have written this book to provide us with their advice, wisdom and experience.
The lessons/chapters include:
* Looking for treats
* Being persistent
* Communicating better
* Living in the moment
* Planning your escape
* Avoiding certain dogs
* Knowing when to bark
* Watching out for hoses
* Embracing change
* Being a good sniffer
* Chasing cars
* Earning trust and choosing partners
* Eat, sleep and play
* Being loyal
* Training people
* Everyone needs a job
* Selecting the right leash
* Taking advantage of opportunities
* Getting the basics right
* Leaving your mark
* Sadie's twelve most important lessons for a better life
Sadie starts each chapter with her view of the lesson as it relates to her dog world. Then Scott gives us his perspective on how to put the lesson in place from a human's perspective. Also included are stories of Sadie's doggy friends and other dogs as they relate to the lessons, pictures of Sadie (so cute!) and cartoons.
I liked this book and I liked the writing style. Sadie's point of view was more fun but what else would you expect from a dog? Both Sadie and Scott provided good reminders about how to be happy in life and successful at work in their own way.
