Long description
A charming and hilarious New York Times bestseller about the enduring wisdom of dogs, from the host of the enormously popular National Dog Show
Its Okay to Miss the Bed on the First Jump is more than a mere celebration of mans best friend. In this lighthearted exploration of how and why dogs serve as some of our most valuable and enlightened teachers, well-known and well-loved actor/show host John OHurley shares lessons learned from his life with canine companions, including:
Every 15 Minutes Is a New Day
Never Miss a Nap
When One Person Stops Petting You, Move On
A Cold Can of Meat Is Still a Feast
Youre Only as Big as You Think You Are
Dogs, after all, have pure hearts, trusting natures, a zest for living, noble characters, and an ability to take things in stride, writes OHurley in the books introduction. They can be counted on, and are pleasant companions. They know what's important, always. How many humans do you know about which you could say the same?
At once poignantly moving and laugh-out-loud funny, Its Okay to Miss the Bed on the First Jump is a must read for dog lovers everywhere.
