Description


A Dog and His Boy is about friendship and loyalty through life's ups and downs. The storyline centers around a boy named Jeremy whose parents gave him a puppy for making straight A's all through school. Jeremy was kind of a loner and a new puppy was just what the doctor ordered! He named the puppy Travis. Jeremy soon learned that Travis was no ordinary dog. Travis was special. He was extremely intelligent and always seemed to be a step ahead of Jeremy, even bailing him out of trouble on occasion. They were inseparable. Life was perfect until they met Sweet Pea, the neighbor's pint-sized Morkie. Little did Travis know that meeting Sweet Pea would change his life forever. He wants nothing to do with her and he makes a plan to run away. His plan works just fine....until the unthinkable happens. This leads Travis and Sweet Pea to forge an unbreakable bond. They quickly become famous heroes in the neighborhood and beloved by Jeremy's family. As the years go by, there are changes in the lives of every character in this story. Through it all, the close friendship between a dog and his boy shines through. Read on to find out how it all comes about!
