Maxwell Woofington

A pedigree cocker spaniel, Maxwell Woofington sees himself less as Man's Best Friend and more as his very cynical and irreverent acquaintance. Max wrote How to Be a Dog by drawing on his seven years of experience as a pet and the invaluable insights of his many canine pals. Practising what he preaches, Max continues to be the alpha male of the Leigh family with whom he lives in Surrey, England.

This is the first book he's written (although he's chewed many more).
