The title for this review is from George Eliot and speaks directly tot he message this book.

He also writes tutorials on any subject in which he has expertise. Ingles al Poder de Tres is an ongoing language system for Spanish speakers who wish to master English. And his culinary arts surfaced in his t book about Mexican cookery.
What David manages to accomplish in this collection of stories and news reports about the condition of the life of dogs is both observation, autobiography, and simply warm reading enter entertainments. The brief synopsis provides enough encouragement for the reader to explore the pages quietly and with compassion. ‘“A Rose by Any Other Name – Life Lessons from an Unremarkable Dog” isn’t just another one of those dog books with a sad ending. It’s a book full of dog stories that follows the exploits of a typical household and the wide range of dog breeds that came to be part of the family. It highlights the joys and sorrows of sharing a dog’s life. This touching memoir tells the story of the dogs that influenced the author’s formative years, his dog-less years and his adoption of ‘Duchess Desert Rose’ – a half Lab, half Shepherd mix. ‘Rose’ is a story with a wide range – from the shores of the St. Lawrence River to the Mountains of Northern Mexico. Part autobiography, part dog training and dog care manual and part social commentary, “A Rose by Any Other Name” is pure entertainment.’
David is an animal activist and struggles with animal rights and protection. Fine writing, here, but all the stories are excellent. This little sampler encourages the reader to advance to David’s two novels – again about dogs. He is making a name for canine stories and those who love them. Grady Harp, April 17
Dogs were domesticated long, long ago. From their point of view, man was forged into a hunting parner by generations of canines. The animals are very bright, and are very useful. Having a dog in the yard means security. The bad guys will try next door to avoid the barking sentry. Burke has carefully crafted his book. It is a tribute to the bond between two social animals. Good work !
This is a great story about a boy and his dogs, from childhood through adulthood.
Burke is careful to keep the relationship real with his best friend and companion throughout his life and writes with a great depth of caring for his animals noting that our role in their lives is that of *caregiver*. The first thing that grabbed me was a quote he used in the beginning *Dogs are miracles with paws*. Truer words were never spoken.
The author's style of writing is clear and concise and it leaves the reader with an incredible vision in their mind's eye. The fact that he includes photos here and there makes it even more special, and in the end, you feel like you know him, his family and his animal companions.
I was impressed that Burke's Dad demanded responsibility from his son making sure that the yard was always clean and that *poop patrol* was always an ongoing activity.
Burke eventually marries and moves to Mexico and his stories of street dogs there is enough to break even the coldest heart. As an advocate for these animals he shares a plea and a link to film documentary in an effort to stop the overpopulation of Mexican street dogs.
The book is available for and also in paperback. It is a fun read for animal lovers and those who enjoy great true stories!
This was basically a book about the author's experience with all the dogs in his life. Very funny at times and sad at times. I would say it's probably close to what most of us experience during our lives. It's a good read, short, but good. Thank you for sharing, Mr. Burke...
