This is the third book in the Puppy Academy series. Each book spotlights a puppy at Sausage
Dreams Puppy Academy who is learning to become a working dog. In this book, Pip, a Labrador retriever is
learning to be an assistance dog. However, he has to earn his Resist Temptation
badge and unfortunately, he is easily tempted by ball games. During a trial period at the training center
for assistance dogs, Pip meets Kayla, a girl in a wheelchair. He must prove to her and himself that he is a
worthy assistant pup.
Filled with lots of black and white illustrations, this book
will appeal to any animal lovers out there.
I think readers will enjoy learning about how dogs are trained for
different jobs. Information about
assistance dogs and a spotlight on a real life assistance dog is included at
the end of the book.
