Bad Dogs Have More Fun is an unforgettable collection of more than 75 newspaper columns by John Grogan, the number-one New York Times best-selling author of Marley & Me. Combining humor, wit, poignancy and affection, these columns provide insight into the intriguing and wonderful world we live in. Whether it be writing about animals (from dogs to elephants to geese!), his powerful and moving comments about his own and other families, his trenchant comments on life's foibles and farces, or his interviews and interactions with people who are memorable and unusual in their own right, John Grogan makes us laugh, he makes us cry, he makes us think.

      September 24, 2007
      Before his canine memoir Marley and Me
      turned four-legged misbehavior into publishing industry gold and sold three million copies, Grogan delighted Philadelphia Inquirer
      readers with his weekly columns centered on the foibles of contemporary suburban life. While 78-year-old Laugh-In
      star Arte Johnson rises to the occasion with competence and grace, he still seems a rather baffling choice to perform the musings of a baby boomer husband and father. According to reports in the trade media, Grogan does not approve of how his previous employer has chosen to organize, market and republish his columns in book form. While stories about animals make up only one of the package's six disks, the title and cover imply a Marley sequel. Given Grogan's undeniable talent and the loyalty of his fans, the recycling of old material without his input seems especially disheartening. With more context and vision, Bad Dogs Have More Fun
      could have been transformed from a reasonably decent listening experience into something special. Simultaneous release with the Vanguard Press hardcover.
