Delilah Doolittle is a pet detective who finds people's missing pets. In this first-in-the-series debut, Delilah is hired to find a missing champion German shephard, Herbert Fitzherbert. When Herbie's owner takes Delilah to see where Herbie spends his time at home, Delilah takes a peek inside the doghouse and finds not Herbie, but instead the dead body of a man with an electronic dog collar around his neck. Delilah gets involved in looking for Herbie along with looking for the dead man's killer.

A very good first mystery in the Pet Detective Mystery series. I like Delilah's spunkiness despite her small size and stature, and her willingness to do what needs to be done to help the missing animals and their owners, inluding her own Doberman, Watson. The ending was a bit predictable to me, but all in all I enjoyed the mystery.
