A Good Dog Book

     I just finished reading a book called "The Dog That Talked to God".  The book is published by Abingdon Press.  In this book, the main character is a widow named Mary Fassler who lost her husband and son three years earlier.  Since this time she has stopped talking to God, and she blames God for the death of her family.  Rufus is the name of the miniature schnauzer the woman buys.  Rufus begins talking to his new owner one night when they are out on a walk.  Rufus mentions that he talks to God.  The rest of the book is the story of  how Mary rebuilds her life and her faith in God with Rufus' help and the help of her friends.
     I really enjoyed this book.  Rufus is a great canine character and a great dog.  My only criticism of the book is that the ending seems very rushed.  Otherwise, I highly recommend it.
