Book Review: Junior and Bob - The Beach Bulldogs: Let Sleeping Dogs Lie (a bulldog scrapbook)

Junior and Bob - The Beach Bulldogs: Let Sleeping Dogs Lie, by Roxanne Dean (Create Space, 2020, 110pp PB,$9.99) Review by Skye Anderson

A ton of fun in one little book for Bulldog lovers - and everyone else - starting with history and a quiz: I am a dog trainer and only got 5 out of 10 questions right! Did you know Bulldogs are the 4th most popular dog breed in the US?

Author Roxanne Dean has packed a wallop into Junior and Bobo - The Beach Bulldogs. Since most bulldogs are not swimmers, Dean emphasizes the point that these Bulldogs live near two beaches  year 'round - Bethany Beach, Delaware, in the summer and St. Pete's Beach, Florida, during the winter. But their favorite sport, besides being petted by every human they meet, is napping.

Junior, being raised from puppyhood, merits his own chapter as does Bobo, a rescued Bulldog with quite a story all his own. Other chapters feature mascots and logos, cartoons and movies - and include a list of Bulldog rescue organizations and breeders with questions to ask.

All in all, Junior and Bobo will give you ideas to create your own dog's scrapbook and story!
