Humphrey was here by: Mark J. Asher


I love dogs and I had recently lost my dog too.  So I picked up the book with compassion and understanding.  The books begin about a man and his close companion Humphrey's.  As his owner describes him I could see what a wonder dog Humphrey's is.  Then the story gets sad.  His owner describes that terrible event when Humphrey passes away.  As I read on the character Mark Asher remind the reader how people discard their animals like yesterday's fashion.  Very sad, but then the book took a turn for the worse.  As Humphrey's owner is recovering from his loss he begins to volunteer.  But then he starts to think maybe he should get a dog and this is when I didn't like the book anymore he plays on the affection of the dogs. He takes a dog home and then decides he is not ready.  He does this about three more times.  I forced myself to read on in hopes that he gets a dog, but he does not.  I was disappointed and annoyed with the book.  I got this book for free from bookbub.com.  Glad I didn't spend my money on this one.
