- Synopsis
- [From the inside flap:] "The Woofies Dog Food Company is sponsoring a nationwide competition to find its next media star, and Bo Dibbs has just five weeks to train Dolby, the Dibbses' gigantic Great Dane-Labrador mix. Dolby can sit and roll over, and he has a great woof. But Bo knows that it will take a very special trick to win the Woof-Off. Then, one day when the telephone is ringing and Dolby is woofing, Bo gets a brilliant idea: Maybe he can teach Dolby to answer the phone! That's one trick that would make any dog a star. In this funny novel, Barbara Steiner's third about the Dibbs family, younger brother Bo takes center stage. He's determined to win the Woof-Off and won't give up, even when Dolby's wonderful new trick causes Big Trouble. The author writes with humor and insight." Bo is determined and funny as he shows the patience, repetition, rewards and surprises that are part of training a dog. As smart and eager as he is to please, sometimes Dolby just feels lazy or wants to have his way. Whatever Dolby does, Bo and his family are kind and think the world of their big dog.
