Critical Praise

“Schine is a sly writer with considerable dog and people skills… Fine and precise [in] execution… Filled with a sweetness of life.”

——The Boston Globe

“Poignant and frankly funny. Schine has a gift for illuminating wholly believable yet somehow unexpected characters with a single line.”

——Chicago Tribune

“Schine's sleek little parable about love and loss in the big city is neatly layered with intersecting stories of each character. A sweetly savvy paean to dogs and the people who love them.”

——Baltimore Sun

“Sprightly, romantic, occasionally sad but always diverting… The New Yorkers will inspire you to sit, stay, and beg for more.”

——Connie Ogle, The Miami Herald
