Bad Dog

Meet Hola—the only dog ever to be expelled from puppy school twice. Now her supposed master—a TV writer turned management consultant and high-functioning alcoholic—is about to lose his job, and his wife, too, if he can''t get his life—and his dog—under control.

Hola may be the most beautiful Bernese mountain dog in the world, but she''s never been trained, so it''s not her fault if she tackles strangers, chews on furniture, and runs after buses. That honor falls to Marty, Hola''s supposed master, a high-functioning alcoholic who’s so in debt, out of shape, and desperate to save his marriage that he throws himself headlong into the world of competitive dog training. Unfortunately, he knows even less than Hola.
