Puppy Chow Is Better Than Prozac

Puppy Chow Is Better Than Prozac: The True Story of a Man and the Dog Who Saved His Life

Bruce Goldstein

Rating: 5/5

Synopsis:

Meet Ozzy. For the suicidally depressed author, this furry antidepressant came with only one side effect-unconditional, slobbery love.

Review: I was out one day shopping with my mom and we made a random trip to Barnes and Noble. I happend to be looking through the pet section (we had just started considering adopting another dog after we had to put our 19 year old lab mix to sleep) and found this book. I think the title alone is what had me purchasing this book...You have to admit it is a cute title. The very first sentence alone scares the crap out of you but in the end you know that things are going to go from REALLY bad to oh so much better for the author with the help of a little furry antidepressant.

What I REALLY thought:

Beginning: The VERY beginning (like the very first sentence) scared the crap out of me...but as I learned more about the author that sentence became much clearer.

Middle: Things are starting to look up.

End: Things are going pretty well for Oz and Bruce. Puppy Chow REALLY is better than Prozac.
