Members Reviews:

A fun, not to serious book

At first the talking dog with different actors voices seemed a little off. But as you read on it starts to blend in nicely with the story. Ellen gets good advice from skip, her dog, and protection when needed. After a bad marriage, does she find love again, with guidance from skip? You have to read and find out :) It really is another good book by Donne Mabry.

Skip to the rescue!!

I enjoyed this book. Why? Well because I too talk to my dog. However my dog has never answered me back in various voices or in any voice.

Mention was made of the many forgotten dogs in the various dog pounds and the cruelty of humans towards other animals. This abhorrent behaviour to animals makes me wish that every dog could voice his or her opinion on what they think of their owners. Skip is a delightful Labrador who has been there and done that. He is not shy about demanding what he wants and why he should get it. Pet lovers out there should read this book because although we have loved and have looked after our dogs, cats, budgies etc for centuries, we can still forget their needs such as well made dog houses for outside. As was expected with this type of book all's well that ends well! A delightful story when you do not want to read something intense. Well done to Donna Mabry for reminding us of how special dogs are. I have two dogs and wish I could love and support many more. However our local vets (as good as they are!) are also very expensive which can be the down side to having too many pets.

Cute story

This was a cute story, very different than what I usually read, but I love books by Donna Mabry, so I thought I'd try it. There were a lot of mistakes though, and that always disappoints me. I believe it said this was a revised edition so it was surprising.

I found it to be very sweet and special

I was not sure what to expect with this book, I found it to be very sweet and special. It is just a neat little book, I thoroughly enjoyed it.... very entertaining. I choose to believe that perhaps this is actually true to some degree, I feel a connection so special with my little dog and feel often that she is conveying her opinion to me. This book gave me a very interesting perspective on that.

Don't Miss This Wonderfully Written book !

I am very much a dog person. Odd since I did not get my first two (brother & sister) until I quite long in the tooth. I love good dog books and I have been lucky to read some wonderful ones like, "A Dogs Purpose", "A Dogs Journey" and "Racing in the Rain" to name just a few. But I have also read some terrible ones. Written by someone hoping to make a few dollars. I was really doubtful about "Conversations with Skip". But since I had read many of Donna Mabry books and never been disappointed I decided to read it. I am so I glad I did.
