About Doodle Dog:
Snuggled up by a warm fireplace, a floppy-eared puppy sleeps, dreaming of the big, bright world outside. When the sun wakes him up and he shakes the night from his eyes, what fun surprises will be
waiting for him? What exciting new friends will he meet on his way? Come along with Doodle Dog as he explores a brand new day! This book combines the author's four passions: writing, animals, children, and community service. A portion of the proceeds from every Doodle Dog item will go to a local animal rescue organization.
