Lessons from Tara: Life Advice from the World's Most Brilliant Dog by Rosenfelt, David. hardcover edition. ISBN: 0884384312771.

David Rosenfelts loyal readers of the Andy Carpenter series are familiar with Tara, the golden retriever sidekick. Many also got to know Tara from Dogtripping, Davids nonfiction book about becoming a slightly nutty dog rescuer and the dog that started it all. Here, finally, is a book all about the inspirational canine who taught David everything he knows. Well, he did know how to tie his shoes before he met and came to love Tara, but thats about it. Through Tara, David learned about dating, about being able to share his emotions, and also about everyday stuff like who gets to use the pillow if several dogs are sleeping in your bed (clue: Its not the human) and why random barking will never be something that can be eliminated. Lessons From Tara is infused with Davids trademark wry and self-deprecating sense of humor, and will move readers to tears and laughter.
