Book Review of Saturdays with Stella: How My Dog Taught Me to Sit, Stay, and Come When God Calls

reviewed on + 2 more book reviews


I enjoyed this book. Being a dog owner myself and having a young dog I got as a rescued puppy I could identify with her experiences with Stella. I liked the emphasis on her relationship with Stella and how it grew as the trust between them grew. I would like to try some of the methods of teaching obedience commands that she describes with my own dog. As a Christian, I also especially liked the author's relating Stella's struggles with obedience and trust to our own experiences of learning to obey and trust God in our lives. It was a charming book.
